Ah, I see.

I re-added `symbol' entry to script-representative-chars but
with vector of characters as this:

	(symbol . [#x201C #x2200 #x2500])

and modified ftfont.c to handle that kind of format to
fileter out fonts that have none of characters in the
vector.

Please you try again with the latest code.
