could not convert (0xf9db) BIG5 to UTF-8

I am not absolutely sure this is a bug but I get

local_to_utf: could not convert (0xf9db) BIG5 to
UTF-8. Ignored
local_to_utf: could not convert (0xf9d7) BIG5 to
UTF-8. Ignored

when inserting/copying these 2 BIG5 characters to
tables. The server encoding is set to "UNICODE" and
client is set to "BIG5".

The messages says BIG5 code points 0xf9db and 0xf9d7 are not
valid. Are you sure that these BIG5 characters are valid?

I entered these 2 characters in 2 files using vi by
telneting to Linux from Windows95 (Tranitional
Chinese). One in t1 and the other in t2. These 2
characters are visible in vi and Windows notepad.
Then,

#od -tx t1
0000000 000adbf9
0000003

#od -tx t2
0000000 000ad7f9

Did I correctly conduct the testing?
