Anything that is currently commented out in dumped-lisp.el is hopelessly (for the moment) broken. This includes ethiopic.el and thai.el to name two. I'm probably not going to copy those files into 21.0. On general principles, they probably _should_ get copied into 21.2. For 21.0/1, no. Once 21.0 is out of the way and I start looking at Mule 3.0 API issues, it's on the table.
