bug#33829: 26.1; Unicode codepoint 177, PLUS-MINUS SIGN doesn't insert

[Drew Adams]

See https://emacs.stackexchange.com/q/46713/105

emacs -Q

(global-set-key (kbd "C-o") "±")

Then try `C-o'.  Instead of inserting the char you get `C-u 1-' in the
minibuffer.  Emacs seems to be interpreting `C-o' as a partial numeric
prefix arg.

But this works fine:

(global-set-key (kbd "C-o") "☬") to insert ☬.
