There's also the matter of updating __STDC_ISO_10646__ in stdc-predef.h.
Unicode 7.0 claims to correspond to ISO/IEC 10646:2012 plus amendments 1
and 2 (and one extra character). Unfortunately I can find no sign of
amendment 2 ever having been published; it looks rather like it was
subsumed into ISO/IEC 10646:2014. Wikipedia claims that corresponds to
Unicode 7.0 (which would imply 201409L as version), but I can't find any
authoritative information, either on the Unicode website or after looking
through lots of SC2 documents, to confirm if there are indeed no
characters in 10646:2014 that aren't in Unicode 7.0.
