Latest Unicode "smile"

[Richmond Mathewson]

So there I am merrily entering vowel signs into my textFld with scripts 
rather like
this;

set the unicodeText of the selectedText to (numToChar(105) & numToChar(772))

and you can see the result at:

as you will see; simple vowels seem to 'fly' above those with overscore 
diacritics
which is, frankly, a farce!

Apart from the obvious joke about long vowels being weighed down by their
diacritics, does anyone have any idea what is going on, and how to sort 
this out/
