Excuse me, but it most certainly does not.
The VT100's margin wrap feature is exceedingly baroque and does
not match the model associated with termcap/terminfo "am" capability,
which describes a simple immediately-wraparound feature (the VT100
maintains internal state and defers wraparound until it thinks it
should have been done, but it gets confused by certain character
sequences).
VT100 termcap/terminfo descriptions should NOT specify "am" even if
the margin wrap option of the terminal is enabled.
