Can someone confirm the LMS that came with piCoreplayer can display unicode chars

I think you're specifically talking about Unicode display on the
Classic/Transporter/Boom? Unfortunately no recent Perl version I'm aware
of has support for this. I believe at some point it became too painful
to compile that module (Font::FreeType). The last Perl version I see we
have it for is Perl 5.16 - which is pretty old.

That said I see that the version we used to use is from 2004 - but there
are more recent versions from 2018. Maybe it would be possible to
compile the latest for recent Perl versions...
