New issue 7391 by owenblacker.projects: Unusual Unicode characters fail to  
display (specifically IPA)
http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=7391

Chrome Version       : 1.0.154.48
URLs (if applicable) : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gujarat
Other browsers tested:
   Add OK or FAIL after other browsers where you have tested this issue:
      Safari 3: OK
     Firefox 3: OK
          IE 7: OK
          IE 8: OK

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Visit page with International Phonetic Alphabet characters
2. Many characters will be missing

What is the expected result?

The IPA for Gujarat (in this example) should be 11 characters, of which one  
is a diacritic.

What happens instead?

All non-Latin-A characters are missing, displaying "gud()at" instead  
of "gud [ezh] ( [schwa] )
[r-fishhook] t [combining-bridge-below]" -- the characters missing are  
U+0292, U+0259, U+027E
and U+032A. These are all in the "IPA Extensions" block of Unicode (U+0250  
to U+02AF), with the
exception of the last, which is one of the "Combining Diacritical Marks"  
range (U+0300 to
U+036F).

Please provide any additional information below. Attach a screenshot if  
possible.

This issue appears to affect many instances of IPA within Wikipedia; I've  
not noticed it affect
other character blocks and I've not seen IPA on other websites, but I doubt  
it's unique to the
Wikipedia.

Screenshots are from:

   *  Chrome 1.0.154.48
   *  Firefox 3.0.5
   *  Internet Explorer 8.0.6001.18372
