Ah, OK.

First of all, this character wasn't "rejected" per se, and certainly  
not by the IRG.

The "not to encode" status is supposed to mean that either it's  
already encoded or is a variant of an already encoded variant.  (Not  
necessarily a unifiable variant, BTW.)  I have an action item to wrap  
all of the variants into a registered variant set under UTS 37.

However, in this case I'm left scratching my head.  This should not  
have the "not to encode" status.  I don't know how that happened, but  
it was a mistake, and I've altered the status to reflect this.
