That file does not contain all missing glyphs. It contain only basic
glyphs without presentaion forms (even if it does not looks so):

$ unicode -s `cat missing`
U+06CC ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH 
UTF-8: db 8c   UTF-16BE: 06cc   Decimal: ی

Category: Lo (Letter, Other)
Bidi: AL (Right-to-Left Arabic)

U+06CC ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH 
UTF-8: db 8c   UTF-16BE: 06cc   Decimal: ی

Category: Lo (Letter, Other)
Bidi: AL (Right-to-Left Arabic)

U+06CC ARABIC LETTER FARSI YEH 
UTF-8: db 8c   UTF-16BE: 06cc   Decimal: ی

Category: Lo (Letter, Other)
Bidi: AL (Right-to-Left Arabic)

U+06AF ARABIC LETTER GAF 
UTF-8: da af   UTF-16BE: 06af   Decimal: گ

Category: Lo (Letter, Other)
Bidi: AL (Right-to-Left Arabic)
....

So file 'missing' contains:
U+06CC (YEH)
U+06AF (GAF)
U+06A9 (KEHEH)
U+0686 (TCHEH)
U+0698 (JEH)

Those characters have some forms, lets guess:

SIMPLE  ISOLATED   FINAL  MEDIAL  INITIAL
U+06CC  U+FBFC     U+FBFD U+FBFF  U+FBFE
U+06AF  U+FB92     U+FB93 U+FB95  U+FB94
U+06A9  U+FB8E     U+FB8F U+FB90  U+FB8F
U+0686  U+FB7A     U+FB7B U+FB7D  U+FB7C
U+0698  U+FB8A     U+FB8B   -       -

Is it correct? If it is, we have some more glyphs to add, also there is
newt that do not support that symbol correctly (but it will be easy to
make a patch, I'll do this). AFAIK Christian Perrier have done some work
about font, but he has holidays now.
