i don't want dependencies on files outside the context proper; too many
bad experiences with that as they always are made for latex and i don'w
want to waste time on keeping track of all those things anyway
context has enco-utf which is generated from the mkiv character database
and that's our reference definition
(although not relevant for cjk, context also ships its own pattern,
already in utf for quite a while)
so, if some definition is missing we should first fix char-def and then
regenerate enco-utf using mtxrun --script chars --utf
