As the 0x1f separator is not a highway symbol it is not supported by the highway-symbol modifier. In this case, since you don't want to modify the string it would be best to just insert the symbol where you want it to be, however mkgmap does not support that.
If I recall, when we were first working on getting the highway symbols to function, we used a hex editor to directly insert the hex codes into the style file entry. Thus, as a work around, it should be theoretically possible to do something like this: highway=* {name '${ref|highway-symbol:oval}<0x1f>${name}' Where "<0x1f>" is the actual hex code 1f, inserted with a hex editor. This might be enough for Gert to test this out without requiring any modifications to mkgmap. Cheers.
