reassign 767442 trscripts
tag + patch
thanks

Hi Anton,

after some more digging and reverse engineering I found out what caused the
missing symbols in the packages. They were stripped by the unicode_conv AWK
script during the build, as the unicode to unicode conversion is not
lossless.

Hence the problem is created by trbdf I patched the unicode charset
definition to include the Unicode Private Use Area (U+E000..U+F8FF).
I think the assumption that the private use area should be excluded is
wrong, as it's use depends on the communicating partners, and it is not up
to a tool to strip characters defined in the source.

I attached the patch that includes the full Private Use Area. After
rebuilding xfonts-terminus with the patched trbdf in place the caracter
become usable.

Regards,
Andre
