What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. set showbreak=↪ " character show when wrapping line
2.
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
Previously i see the "↪" escape character normally, now (since update i 
believe) I get error "E595: contains unprintable or wide character: 
showbreak=â~Fª"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Version 7.4. Arch Linux Operating System

Works fine for me, on Windows 64-bit gvim 7.4.430. 

The garbage characters when you ask Vim about showbreak is strange. 

Did you actually set showbreak interactively, or is it in your .vimrc? If in 
your .vimrc, did you inform Vim of the file encoding with the "scriptencoding" 
command, prior to setting showbreak? Did you set your "encoding" option prior 
to both of these things?

This can be marked as solved. I compiled vim from source and didn't even modify 
my vimrc and everything got working again. Thank you
