Follow-up Comment #3:

Many unicode characters used by the symbolic package do display correctly, in
both the terminal and the GUI command window. It seems that the "combining
diacritical marks" group of characters does not render in the GUI command
window. So any variables that have an accent, bar, dot, circumflex, etc, are
not rendered correctly in the GUI command window.

It's possible that this missing set of characters has been addressed in a
later version of the qterminal code than the one Octave has embedded.
