No big surprise, they've commented out the relevant entries in the
font.properties file. I'll do the same for the next Blackdown release
as people think that it is a bug, but it isn't.
Try to display dingbats characters (0x2701 - 0x27be) on an AWT
component with the Inprise JDK, you'll get no warnings but the
component only will show question marks: '????'. The warnings from
the Blackdown JDK just tell you immediately that something might not
work correctly.
