No, they are not. I already noticed this question last time, but
didn't know how to answer it.

The main problem is that not only the symbols: not even the proper
font is defined. \oiint resides in "pxexa" font, which is mapped to
Palatino-Math-Extension-A, but that font is not mapped any further.

It would be nice to "define" (copy definitions from LaTeX) those
amsmath symbols once anyway (probably the first time when someone will
need them). An example of such a definition would be:

\definemathsymbol [boxdot]     [bin]  [ma] ["00]

(copied from \re@DeclareMathSymbol{\boxdot}{\mathbin}{AMSa}{0} in pxfonts.sty)

After that you can use $\boxdot$.

But this font is mapped to "ma", while I have no idea which steps are
needed to do the same for "Math-Extension-A" fonts. In order to make
yout integral signs work, you have to ask Adam/Taco/Hans for font
definitions first.

After that you will need the following two definitions:

\definemathsymbol [oiintop]      [op]  [m?] ["10]
\definemathsymbol [oiiintop]     [op]  [m?] ["51]

\definemathcommand [oiint]    {\oiintop\nolimits}
\definemathcommand [oiiint]   {\oiiintop\nolimits}

PS for Hans: regarding the math definitions: are the two functions
general enough to deserve two lines in math-tex?

\definemathcommand [erf]  [nolop] {\mfunction{erf}}
\definemathcommand [erfc] [nolop] {\mfunction{erfc}}
