Hi H.,

I'm not sure. Does the changelog entry mean that the glyphs moved to
different unicode addresses? In 1.00-3, they are at U+F730 - U+F739,
as in other fonts like Caslon, Iwona, Kurier. In 1.010x-5, gucharmap
shows me substitute characters from some other font at these unicode
addresses; see the attached screenshots.
