What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Run: echo -e "abc\n\0314\0202xyz"

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?

Expected: Chrome (the Web browser) and mosh (mosh.mit.edu) use the recommended Unicode fallback rendering for this case. The second line has a circumflex over a space, followed by "xyz".

Also expected: gnome-terminal omits the circumflex. xterm puts it where the cursor was before the newline.

hterm puts the circumflex on the "x" -- which comes AFTER the circumflex in the octet sequence. This is probably not a defensible interpretation of the Unicode.

Please provide any additional information below.
