\textellipsis usually expands to \cdots and that's fine, but
\textellipsis shouldn't be used in unic-032.tex for 0x2026 HORIZONTAL
ELLIPSIS, as this codepoint is for a symbol of dots on the base-line,
not in the center. I've posted about this previously, but got no
response. Anyway, I've attached a patch that fixes the problem. I
don't know if using \dots instead is the best solution, though, so
further discussion may be necessary?,

i made it the equivalent of \unknown (better spacing than \dots)
