    Check Section 3.8, "Surrogates," on pages 97-98 of The Unicode Standard
    5.0, available online at:

    http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.0.0/ch03.pdf

    Then check Unicode 5.1.0, available online at:

    http://www.unicode.org/versions/Unicode5.1.0/

    for any changes that may have occurred since the book was published.

    Finally, you should cross-check all of this with Philippe Verdy to
    ensure accuracy.
