For Panther:

Which is?

Obviously, it's: http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/APPLE/CORPCHAR.TXT

So I wonder how Panther can do want you said:
FYI, Panther was changed to not do font substitution in the user part
of the PUA (it still does it in the corporate part).
without using some arbitrary limit in the middle of the PUA range of the
BMP, by assuming that Apple has not assigned (will not assign) "corporate"
characters in these PUA code points.

Because the assignments in the corporate area only change when we release a new version of Mac OS, not in between. The set of corporate characters is fixed for Panther.
