What 𮮭 means
Only as part of a historical name. In an 1882 Chinese commentary, Li Lianxiu writes 竹𮮭 for the bamboo rat; 竹 means “bamboo.” He says the label may have been local, so it cannot prove that 稚子 (“young one”) in a poem by the Tang poet Du Fu meant an animal rather than bamboo shoots.

Because that device's fonts have no glyph for it. The character is still correct and still copies correctly — the box is a missing glyph, not a broken character.
