The results are the same as before the checkin of bug 722299, right? These test cases all contain characters new in Unicode since version 3.2, so they are rejected by NamePrep before the new display algorithm kicks in. When we update to IDNA2008 this should get fixed automatically.

With network.IDN.use_whitelist set to true (which was the default when this was filed), all the URLs in the testcase now display in Unicode except the last one, which contains an undefined Unicode codepoint.

I'm going to mark this WORKSFORME (though bug 843689 is in process of making it INVALID anyway).
