Subject: bug#39482: 26.3; set-fontset-font with emacs charset does not work correctly

I tried to setup fontset to display a same character with different
'charset text property using different fonts.

(let* ((base "Courier New")
       (size 18)
       (un-spec "SimHei")
       (tc-spec '("MingLiU"   . "big5"))
       (sc-spec '("SimSun"    . "gb2312.1980"))
       (jp-spec '("MS Mincho" . "jisx0208"))
       (kr-spec '("BatangChe" . "ksc5601.1987"))
       )
  (set-charset-priority 'ascii)
  (set-frame-font (format "%s-%g" base size t))
  (set-frame-size nil 80 28)
  (set-fontset-font t '(#x80 . #x10FFFF) un-spec)
  (set-fontset-font t 'chinese-gb2312    sc-spec nil 'append)
  (set-fontset-font t 'big5              tc-spec nil 'append)
  (set-fontset-font t 'japanese-jisx0208 jp-spec nil 'append)
  (set-fontset-font t 'korean-ksc5601    kr-spec nil 'append)
  )

But some characters are not displayed with specified fonts.

CJK Ideographs are displayed as intended:
M-x list-charset-chars RET unicode-bmp RET
  CJK Ideographs are displayed with SimHei.
M-x list-charset-chars RET big5 RET
  CJK Ideographs are displayed with MingLiU.

CJK Ideographs are not displayed as intended:
M-x list-charset-chars RET chinese-gb2312 RET
  CJK Ideographs are displayed with SimSun except for
    啊爱罢帮逼彼蔽庇辟辩...(and more). They are displayed with SimHei.
M-x list-charset-chars RET japanese-jisx0208 RET
  CJK Ideographs are displayed with "MS Mincho" except for
    亜愛挨芦按偉椅為稲蔭...(and more). They are displayed with SimHei.
M-x list-charset-chars RET korean-ksc5601 RET
  CJK Ideographs are displayed with SimHei, not the intended font.
  CJK Compatibility Ideographs are not displayed.
