EZ> I don't think I agree.  This font has problems with combining accents,

if xft is to be depricated in favour of cairo, then anything which works
in xft but fails in cairo is be definition a regression.

and ir works perfectly irrespective of font with xft.

so the fact that --with-cairo gets it wrong is indisputably a regression
in emacs on x11.
