+=head2 C<\N{BELL}> now refers to U+1F514 instead of U+0007
+
+Unicode 6.0 reused the name "BELL" for a different code point than it
+traditionally had meant. Since Perl v5.14, use of this name still
+referred to U+0007, but would raise a deprecated warning. Now, "BELL"
+refers to U+1F514, and the name for U+0007 is "ALERT". All the
+functions in L<charnames> have been correspondingly updated.
