Comment (by pulkomandy):
Unfortunately, changing unicode_blocks this way still breaks binary
compatibility (the size of the class is changed). Moreover, there are
currently 273 blocks in Unicode version 9, so it is still not large
enough.
I would keep the unicode_blocks struct as it is (with only support for the
blocks as defined in BeOS), and introduce a new API (maybe
BFont::SupportsBlock(int blockNumber) which makes it easier to manage
things in the long term.
