Can be I misunderstood the standard and saw gaps in it when there
none. Anyway: fact is that a few programmes show that arial unicode
ms has U+1F48 and GNU Emacs 23.0.60 does not display it from the
font's gb18030.2000-0 encoding. I am attaching two screenshots from
xfd. The gb18030.2000-0 encoding variant starts far behind Greek at U
+8140, which I understand as: this encoding does not provide glyphs
outside some Chinese block(s).
