Support for supplementary characters was added to mysql-6.0. Please upgrade. Closing as not a bug.

I did a quick test on a 5.5 server trying to insert the character 丽 (U+2F800) in a VARCHAR(1) of a schema with character set configured to utf8mb4 and it was successful. As far as I understand utf8mb4 covers all unicode code points so I cannot think of any limitation related to UTF-8 usage in a database configured with utf8mb4 character set. So I guess that support for supplementary characters was added to mysql-5.5 and not mysql-6.0 based on the following documentation page: https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.5/en/charset-unicode-utf8mb4.html
