And according to the following text, they do not exist anymore in
ISO-10646 either :
http://www.unicode.org/unicode/reports/tr28/#relation
With the publication of Amendment 1 to ISO/IEC 10646-1:2000 and the
Unicode Standard, Version 3.2, the two standards are fully synchronized.
[...]
Notable among the architectural changes to ISO/IEC 10646 approved in
Amendment 1 are:
- The range of characters available for private use has been restricted
to those characters accessible via UTF-16, and the intent not to encode
characters past Plane 16 has been clarified. This guarantees the
interoperability of UTF-8 and UTF-16, and the equivalence of UTF-32 and
UCS-4.
