Didn't Tamás take care of similar for bug 103664 with 

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=5ef66db91e87ef84724be22977acf4c9c472ad6b

And, isn't symbol kind of an important mapping as WMF/EMF use it internally?
Should we have more precise control of any "important" PUA mappings and cast
them to their Unicode equivilents?
