Thanks.

On MS-Windows, I see the character rendered by Emacs as in your
LibreOffice snapshot.  So I think the problem is specific to libotf
and m17n_flt, or maybe you need to upgrade them to their latest
versions.

I will CC Handa-san, who maintains m17n_flt, in the hope that he could
comment on the problem.
