Still broken, at least in the latest CVS version of the emacs-unicode-2

I'm using my own branch, derived from the CVS emacs-unicode-2 branch
(I don't think my personal changes are relevant to this area).
So how come it works for me but not for you?
I use the following command to invoke Emacs (where /tmp/m is your
message):
env - TERM=xterm emacs -nw -Q /tmp/m
[The non-ascii chars are displayed as question-marks because Emacs
doesn't know what character set the terminal supports, but they still
match correctly.]
Okay, one difference was that I wasn't running emacs in terminal mode.
However, I tried your example which worked and then reverted to my
normal configuration and now that seems to be working too. So this
really got me worried that I was just doing something really silly.
However, if I start a fresh buffer and then use X11 "cut and paste" to
copy ⟨ ⟩ into the buffer (instead of reading it from a file) it
doesn't work. If I am editing a file that I've opened that already
contains ⟨ ⟩ "cut and paste" a second pair, those match correctly as
well. Alternately, if I first "cut and paste" and then use insert-file,
matching behaves incorrectly. So I'm sure whether this is a
configuration error on my part, or some bugginess regarding interaction
with the X server. I was pretty sure that I emacs configured to use the
correct encoding to start with
set-language-environment "utf-8")
(set-keyboard-coding-system 'utf-8)
(set-terminal-coding-system 'utf-8)
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8)
I just checked and when opening a file with the pair of delimiters,
describe-coding-system says
Coding system for saving this buffer:
U -- utf-8-unix (alias: mule-utf-8-unix)
Default coding system (for new files):
U -- utf-8 (alias: mule-utf-8)
Coding system for keyboard input:
U -- utf-8 (alias: mule-utf-8)
Coding system for terminal output:
U -- utf-8 (alias: mule-utf-8)
Coding system for inter-client cut and paste:
x -- compound-text-with-extensions (alias: x-ctext-with-extensions
ctext-with-extensions)
Defaults for subprocess I/O:
decoding: U -- utf-8-unix (alias: mule-utf-8-unix)
encoding: U -- utf-8-unix (alias: mule-utf-8-unix)
whereas when I open a fresh buffer I get
Coding system for saving this buffer:
Not set locally, use the default.
Default coding system (for new files):
U -- utf-8 (alias: mule-utf-8)
Coding system for keyboard input:
U -- utf-8 (alias: mule-utf-8)
Coding system for terminal output:
U -- utf-8 (alias: mule-utf-8)
Coding system for inter-client cut and paste:
x -- compound-text-with-extensions (alias: x-ctext-with-extensions
ctext-with-extensions)
Defaults for subprocess I/O:
decoding: U -- utf-8-unix (alias: mule-utf-8-unix)
encoding: U -- utf-8-unix (alias: mule-utf-8-unix)
If I change my .emacs so that it has
(prefer-coding-system 'utf-8-unix)
describe-coding-system reports both cases as identical to the first I
quoted above. However, the behavior for working with a fresh buffer
versus and opened file remains the same.
