Hmm, that must be fairly new.  All of the fonts I checked (including
Arial Unicode and Code2000 (which has more than 61,000 glyphs)) end the
2700 page at U+27BE.  LONG RIGHTWARDS SQUIGGLE ARROW is U+27FF.

C:\Tmp>python
Python 2.4.1 (#65, Mar 30 2005, 09:13:57) [MSC v.1310 32 bit (Intel)] on

Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> x = u"\N{LONG RIGHTWARDS SQUIGGLE ARROW}"
>>> x
u'\u27ff'
>>>
