How can that be worded better, assuming it is a bug? Sure looks like a bug. Seems unicode characters > U+FFFF trip up something. On qt (under win7/gp50pl1) I get three question marks in a black diamond in the plot, and an open square in labels. (i haven't found a font that actually has that character) wxt puts nothing in the plot, and a "missing" character (square with four "0"s in it) in a huge font (fs 60 or so) in labels. I guess the huge font is another bug triggered by the same thing (probably a bug in pango and/or because the symbol is not in the font?).
