I actually thought of that. I've got everyting, except the TTF versions of certain languages. And that only because I've got the Xfont variants installed already. It seems, to my memory, that those wouldn't be important because I recall not having installed them before (though I could be mistaken, hence having installed virtually every font package in aptitude). As it stands I can, in Charmap with KDE select a font that does not contain a-circumflex and it simply displays a standard font there instead of it looking like the rest of the characters in that font, but I have a lot of things missing, like esperanto characters, the Cherokee alphabet and random arabic letters, and whole blocks of mathematics symbols that I know I used to have. To say nothing of the more interesting stuff.
