Without +multi_byte, you cannot use UTF-8, which is a multibyte encoding using between one and six bytes per character in theory, one and four in practice, to represent characters. Every codepoint above U+007F, including many Polish characters such as L-bar, anything with ogonek, etc., requires two or more bytes in UTF-8. A build of Vim with --disable-multibyte might support Polish using some 8-bit East-European encoding, it won't support UTF-8, and it won't be able to display UTF-8 files correctly. You may want to check your src/auto/config.log for a hint of why configure crashed. I'm adding vim_dev to the list of groups this is sent to because I have a feeling this might be a general config question rather than a specific multibyte question. Oh, and by the way, the latest patchlevel is now 87. See http://ftp.vim.org/pub/vim/patches/7.1/README for details.
