Yep. If you look at the description sheet from Unicode.org that describes
the Latin Extended A set (http://www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0100.pdf), the
lower case g-cedilla (or undercomma or unattached-cedilla) does this same
thing,
by design. The undercomma is rotated 180 degrees and placed over the top.
