If this is document
http://std.dkuug.dk/jtc1/SC2/wg2/docs/n3907.pdf
then I’m rather confused: it proposes AB51 for LATIN SMALL LETTER
BLACKLETTER O and does not include LATIN SMALL LETTER BLACKLETTER E at
all. And as far as I can see, the proposal has not been accepted.

When and how have the additions been made?

As far as I can see, the current version of Unicode is 6.2, and code
points AB32 and AB3D are unassigned (reserved). There are no characters
with BLACKLETTER in their Unicode name.
