Indeed: http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/Unicode-9.0/U90-A720.pdf

Yes, libunistring so far is based on Unicode 8.0.
Yes, it will be updated to Unicode 9.0 at some point. Daiki has prepared a
patch to update parts of libunistring to Unicode 9.0, but ran out of time
with it.
But that's not urgent, right? Few people are using the new characters, and
I guess the widespread fonts don't cover them either, yet.
