Traditionally BookMorph title bar uses ◊, since when the internal
encoding of the system was MacRoman.  The character is called
"Lozenge".

When we changed the internal encoding to Unicode and I remember hand
editing some of the fonts.  I can't really remember what was going on.
It is a bit funky that the code point is 179 yet showing Lozenge (i.e.
the Accuny font has that glyphs at 179).  From 3.8 and later versions,
the code was carried over but now the default font uses Latin-1
encoding, and code point 179 is shown ad upper script three.
