Comparison of the symbol between DejaVu and Linux Libertine at 20pt, rendered in MS Word 2002 on Windows XP

The marriage symbol U26AD http://www.fileformat.info/info/unicode/char/26ad/index.htm appears very small and is hardly legible. The attached screenshot compares the symbol to the version in Linux Libertine.
This bug is about making the symbol in DejaVu larger and easier to recognize.

Confirmed, but may take some time to fix. Size of ⚭ depends on ⚬ since it used for "engaged" in genealogy. However ⚬ itself depends on the size of other circle symbols because of its concurrent use as a mathematical symbol.

At the moment the circle sizes are not optimal for either use case.
