Here is an even simpler example - just a single lower case delta in a WMF file. Viewed with "preview" or IE8 it shows the expected lower case delta character.
With inkscape:
new drawing
import justdelta.wmf (nothing will be visible)
immediately ungroup (the text handle will become visible, not the character)
edit XML
open until the rectangle with the 4 tiny characters becomes visible.
click on it
in the right pain, enter an "a" before the rectangle, a "d" after it
On the drawing canvas "<alpha><space>< delta>" will become visible. Will post that svg next.
