Thanks. Still, it'd be nice to have the code spaces (tentatively)
allocated for tengwar available - and they're not in the first 65535
characters in Unicode (old unicode, now the BMP).

Of course, there's more to Unicode than the character set, but most of
that is in the text processing domain (troff, TeX).
