According to localedata/ChangeLog, these characters have been requested
by Tung-Han Hsieh, see
  
http://sourceware.org/cgi-bin/cvsweb.cgi/libc/localedata/locales/zh_TW.diff?r1=1.1&r2=1.2&cvsroot=glibc
It is thus very unlikely that upstream will revert it without their
consent.  Can you please discuss with people listed as maintainers of
this locale file, and ask them to submit changes to upstream Bugzilla?
Thanks.
