Thanks, but using -nw doesn't help with this problem.  The -nw session
doesn't use any font shaping engines, it uses text-mode stdio writes
to the screen, so using it doesn't add any useful information about
this problem.

I believe Handa-san asked for "emacs -Q", not "emacs -nw".  Can you
try that?
