Looks like Unicode 6.1 has recategorized some of the symbols, including
a few in Latin-1.
 
"§" U+00A7 SECTION SIGN from Symbol_Other to Punctuation_Other
"¶" U+00B6 PILCROW SIGN from Symbol_Other to Punctuation_Other
 
It seems that the correct response would be just to change
the Latin-1 test cases.
 
A wrinkle, though, is that in SRFI-14, they call out "§" and "¶"
as symbols.  But my interpretation of the text in SRFI-14 is that
they intended to follow Unicode's categorization.

WDYT?
 
Thanks,
