"Drop here to hide": Unknown Unicode symbol

Under Windows 7 SP1, I only see a placeholder for Unicode symbol U+1F5D9 (Cancellation X); I seem to miss a font which provides this symbol.

No, it's a drop zone for the other buttons on the same strip, in order to let you customize the UI.

This was discussed long ago when this uni(que)-code gravestone appeared.
There were some problems with this (or whole menubar) then and at least one has survived:

Yes, it displays a "Close" cross now. The position might be 2-3 px low, though.
