You probably forgot to escape some space or something like that. I cannot debug
this with your autowrap, but try to replace `set' with `let':
let &statusline="%f Buffer=%n %m %h %r %=Filetype=%y ".
\"Dec=%b Hex=%B %{printf('Oct=%03o', ".
\"char2nr(matchstr(getline('.'), '.', col('.')-1)))} ".
\"Line=%l Col=%c %P"
I tested this and it works.
