That did lead me to wonder: do the arrows work on a DX? Because I use the exact same font on my K3, and the arrows work there, but then FW 3.x has a much larger Unicode coverage through the code2000 font (or droidfallback in my case).
I'll try with the default fonts to make sure...
EDIT: Well, crap. No shiny arrows with the default fonts, either. I'll fire up fontforge...

EDIT^3: One very dirty workaround later...
