Dear Laurent,

yes. all other cyrillic encodings have these ligatures: T2*, X2, LCY.

Will AMS agree to have << and >> ligatured added to WLCY fonts?

they are available in EC! just \usepackage[T1]{fontenc}, and there
will be ligatures << and >> for guillemets.

and one more question: should one also remove the ligature
N 0 => numero
it seems to be kind of absurd too (provided that [[ and ]] are absurd :)
