I don't think "line boundary control character" means what you think it
does.  In fact, I'm having trouble finding out what it means at all.
A search of the Unicode site only lists it in an erratum.

It appears (I'm looking at the Unicode 2.0 book) to mean "space
character".  It's supposed to be described in chapter 6, but there
the same characters are listed as space characters.

In any case, it doesn't include NL or CR either.
