Subject: 25.0.50; `compose-string-internal` does not work properly on OSX.
Date: Sat, 09 May 2015 11:27:15 -0700
The function `compose-string-internal` does not work properly when running Emacs built on OSX.  The following example works on Windows, but not OSX -- it "should be" the letter A with a pipe running through the center of the letter A.  Depending upon the arguments passed to `compose-string-internal` when using Emacs on OSX, the pipe is either displayed to the right (at various distances) or is not visible at all -- it never displays "on top of" the target character.

(defun test-fn ()
(interactive)
  (message (compose-string-internal "A|" 0 (length "A|"))))

And here is another version of the same concept using `compose-chars`, which uses `compose-string-internal`.

(defun test-fn ()
(interactive)
  (message (compose-chars (string-to-char "A") '(tc . tc) (string-to-char "|"))))

Thanks,

Keith
