I see no reason given for us not to unify the
handwritten symbol we have seen with BREVE ABOVE.
In the environment described, apparently bg is
taken as an abbreviation for berg, and b˜g (with
breve) is being used as an abbreviation for burg.
The breve is the same as was used in German to
differentiate u from n.
The thing in those examples shown as a curly
thing between the b and the g should be encoded
as a brever over the b.
That's my opinion, anyway.
