We had a lenghty discussion about this here, the vim digraph scheme
has changed. The result: If you compile the latest Vim with
multibyte-support and digraphs, set your Terminal.app to UTF-8, and
use 
  
  set encoding=utf-8
  let &termencoding = &encoding

in both .vimrc and .gvimrc, everything works just fine.
