FS#9716 - new unifont update

I was cruising around the internet when I noticed that unifont was updated on 9-7. The last update was 8-20, one update behind. I did my best to create an updated version, but I am new to this, so here is what I did.
1. downloaded and unzipped the truetype font (link in fs#9241, included
2. ran otf2bdf and created a bdf file, included
3. ran the remove filler chars script found in fs#9241 (thanks rasher!), and put the resulting file in the zip file, along with everything else. The link to download the zip file is:

Current version’s GNU Unifont (7 Sep. 2008) does not changes glyph data from 20 Aug. 2008.

In GNU Unifont Glyphs top page(http://unifoundry.com/unifont.html)
> Additions for 2008-09-07: TrueType Combining Diacritical Marks
> The .hex, .bdf, and .pcf files are unchanged from the 2008-08-20 version. The .ttf (TrueType) font was modified to superimpose Unicode combining diacritical
> marks on the glyph that they follow, with no advance in cursor position.

Furthermore, Rockbox’s GNU Unifont is based by current BDF version of the font (http://unifoundry.com/unifont-5.1.20080820.bdf.gz).
Then I think that it is not necessary to update.

Should it be closed, then?
