The problem here is not finding the right font. With gtk2fontsel I can find and test "Terminus" font, and it works in urxvt and gtk2fontsel for any symbols. They just find the right file for every symbol or something like that. st selects one font and if I specify just "Terminus", non-unicode version is loaded. I have solved it by specifiying filename. This way all symbols work. Zoom doesn't work for obvious reason: different file names are required for different font sizes.
