I'm still looking for an official source of that.

>>> u"\u88cf".encode("big5hkscs")
'\xf9\xd8'

works fine (and always has been working fine), and the character clearly is in big5hkscs. According to 

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Big5

F9D8 is "Reserved for user-defined characters", so this suggests that the character does *not* have a fixed meaning in BIG-5. However, it is part of the Hong Kong Supplementary Character Set.
