Description Ian 2016-06-02 22:13:11 UTC 
This is the opposite of bug 363864.
I have fonts with some new unicode glyphs in. They show up in Fontforge, but in KCharselect they do not show, and the name is for example "<Not assigned>"

Eg 
Character: Non-printable U+218A
Name: <not assigned>
General Character Properties
Block: Number Forms
Unicode category: Other, Not Assigned
Various Useful Representations
UTF-8: 0xE2 0x86 0x8A
UTF-16: 0x218A
C octal escaped UTF-8: \342\206\212
XML decimal entity: &#8586;

in Symbola font. 

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Symbola font
2. Mathematical Symbols, Number Forms.
3. +218A and +218B are missing.

Actual Results:  
+218A and +218B are missing.

Expected Results:  
Glyphs should show.
I suspect this is because KCharselect (BTW version is 1.12 not 1.11 as given above) is not up to date with latest Unicode spec.
