The problem with these new 1-wide symbols is that they are not present in most fonts. And fonts in which they *are* present are too wide. Note: in those fonts they 1. are 1-wide 2. the *font itself* is too wide. So this problem has nothing to do with Vim. To check whether it is the case, use terminal emulator which does not support fallback fonts or does not do it by default. E.g. rxvt-unicode (AKA urxvt) has this property (make sure that fallback font is not specified in X resource database: urxvt does not support automatic fallback driven by fontconfig configuration, but it has its own configuration with similar purpose). If in such terminal emulator the glyph you are referring to is shown as missing (usually as rectangle) and occupies exactly one display cell then I am right. If it is not there are two variants: 1. There is something wrong in the font. Never saw this variant actually. 2. Your Vim is using outdated unicode databases.
