irc.freenode.#vim.weechatlog:2014-07-24 22:10:05  jamessan  glphvgacs: This 
looks a lot like http://code.google.com/p/vim/issues/detail?id=183 which Bram 
hoped would be fixed by 7.4.207, although it doesn't appear it was.  I seem to 
recall further discussion about that, but haven't found it yet

The problem most likely is that kmscon does not behave like xterm, even though 
you tell Vim it does.  Set TERM to something more appropriate?

that doesn't explain why builds before (not including btw) 7.4.273 have this 
problem, does it?

vim changed the 7bit/8bit handling at some point (or some library did). libtsm 
(which is the term-backend of kmscon) only sends 7bit sequences. I really need 
to fix that..

I think this has been already fixed by 7.4.389.
