Enabling the liberation fonts didn't result in those unicode
characters displayed in either browser for me.
I tried downloading a number of other fonts, which didn't work for me either:
media-fonts/intlfonts International X11 fixed fonts
media-fonts/font-xfree86-type1 X.Org XFree86 Type 1 font
media-fonts/efont-unicode The /efont/ Unicode Bitmap Fonts
media-fonts/corefonts Microsoft's TrueType core fonts
media-fonts/freefont OpenType and TrueType Unicode fonts from the Free
UCS Outline Fonts Project

So far, the only font that did work for me is media-fonts/unifont.

Thanks for trying to help anyway.
