This problem occurs in vim with +multi_byte. 
:edit ++encoding=xyz always causes error E474, while ++enc=xyz succeeds.

"encoding" is the only ++option where the short form of the option is a 
substring of the long form.  The check for these options does not account
for this.

Here is one way to fix this (same as attached patch).
