Hm, the documentation for 'cul' talks about screenlines, but in my
experience, 'cul' has always been highlighting complete lines. Looks like
a documentation error.
I guess, there is nothing you can do about, except, maybe implement it
yourself:
fu! CursorLine()
if !exists("CL")
hi CL gui=underline term=underline cterm=underline
endif
if !exists("b:matches")
let b:matches = 0
endif
let col = virtcol('.')
let width = winwidth(0)
let screenline = col/width
let start = screenline * width
let end = (screenline+1) * width + 1
if b:matches > 0
sil! call matchdelete(b:matches)
endif
let pat = '\%'. line('.'). 'l\%>'. start. 'v.*\%<'. end. 'v'
let b:matches = matchadd('CL', pat)
endfu
au CursorHold,CursorHoldI * :call CursorLine()

Christian
