Yes, I double-checked with wget, and it can retrieve the page fine.
So the problem is in Firefox (it shows even the HTML source
truncated…).

Private-use?! The page is in iso-2022-jp! Anyway, why would
private-use show as dots in browsers? If it is defined somewhere in
the places the browser looks at, it will be shown THAT way; otherwise
the browser’s last-resort would hit (which I never saw to be dots; HEX
in Firefox; “non-squares” ;-] in Chrome).
