..

if you mean that neither pgp nor gnupg wrap a line that ends with a tab
followed by a character, 
this is true only for pgp, which, even though it wraps at 76,
will not wrap if there is a tab anywhere after position 76

for gnupg, as long as the position of wrapping will not result in a line ending with a tab, then it will wrap,
usually at position 64

{is it possible to change the position of the wrapping in gnupg
i.e. the length of the line ?}
