Looking at what you wrote above again, I think the problem is that Emacs
now looks in greater detail at which unicode characters fonts have,
rather than blindly using any iso10646-1 font for all unicode
characters. For characters in PUA you will need to explicitly tell Emacs
how to display them as follows, since Emacs cannot automatically
recognize which fonts contain the characters you want:
(set-fontset-font "fontset-default" '(#xe000 . #xf8ff) FONT-SPEC)
