I'm inclined to think this is either a terminal or font problem.  Simply
cat'ing the file shows the same effect of lines longer than they really
are since a single-column box is being shown for each byte of these
characters.  Vim 'properly' displays these characters when running gvim.

This isn't stritly related to xterm/uxterm though since rxvt-unicode has
the same problem.
