Yeah, that's definitely the case, and it's not just a problem with
double-width characters -- the coverage of many iso10646 fonts seems
completely crap.
E.g., see a post by `Danilo Segan' on this list. It apparently contains
cyrillic characters encoded in UTF-8, which emacs dutifully tries to
render using an iso10646 font, but show up as square boxes on my
system...
Here's the output of `C-u C-x =', in case anyone is interested:
character: с (01212141, 332897, 0x51461, U+0441)
charset: mule-unicode-0100-24ff
(Unicode characters of the range U+0100..U+24FF.)
code point: 40 97
syntax: w which means: word
category: y:Cyrillic
buffer code: 0x9C 0xF4 0xA8 0xE1
file code: 0x9C 0xF4 0xA8 0xE1 (encoded by coding system raw-text-unix)
display: by this font (glyph code)
