If i recall correctly this has been discussed already; if not here
then on the Unicode list.  Unicode brings quite a lot of
codepoints, like CIRCLED DIGIT ONE, PARENTHESIZED DIGIT ONE, DIGIT
ONE FULL STOP etc.  All these are marked "No", and i think the
discussion concluded that they should not be taken into account
when converting strings to numbers.  Hans Åberg surely knows
better than I.
