Is not that they screw completion, is that they provide no name for
completion. You still can use ucs-insert to insert them by codepoint
number.

unidata-setup-list already detects these kind of ranges and deals with them.

As I said before, I agree: we *shouldn't* need to skip them. But
somehow, the process in unidata-gen.el that creates the chartables
with codepoint information is generating bad data exclusively for that
range: U+1F200..U+1F2FF (which are not the only characters added in
5.2.0, BTW). That's what triggered the ucs-insert error: getting the
name of one of those characters returns a number instead of a symbol.
I'm trying to determine why the bad data is generated in the first
place.
