This is not broken Unicode support. According to http://www.unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/ucd/EastAsianWidth.txt (the latest version of the "width" database, currently at version 9.0.0), codepoint U+26A1 HIGH VOLTAGE SIGN has width "W" (wide). The possible values are N (neutral), Na (narrow), W (wide), H (halfwidth), F (fullwidth) and A (ambiguous). If that character was previously regarded by Vim as occupying only one character cell, then making CJK-wide fixes a bug rather than creating a regression.
