Comment (by vegansalad):

 Can this ticket please get some love from someone?

 I feel like it Would be better to have the TBB for linux bundled with
 basic needed fonts, even if that makes the ROM slightly bigger, instead of
 leaving them broken. This is a basic feature that a browser should
 provide, the ability to render characters properly, especially characters
 that have been standardized for decades, like the multiplication sign:
 https://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/2715/browsertest.htm

 What are the blockers to allowing multiplication signs and other common
 characters render properly? I'm not trying to be rude, but it has been
 over three years since I've contributed to this issue.
