You had me worried there for a moment :-)
Mike> As can be seen in the attached screenshot, Emacs can display colour

Mike> 5.5), but it works with “Noto Color Emoji” as well. I just tested wrong.
Mike> Some sequences like
Mike> 👩🦰 U+1F469 U+200D U+1F9B0 woman: red hair
Mike> 🧑🦰 U+1F9D1 U+200D U+1F9B0 person: red hair
Mike> don’t render correctly in the screenshot, although they work

Is this with a cairo build or an XFT one? Gedit will almost certainly
be using cairo. (Iʼd test it myself, but downloading joypixels
requires signing up, and Iʼm feeling ornery today).
Mike> So I think this bug here can be closed.
Done with this message.

File to reproduce the problem:
$ cat reproduce-crash.el
(set-fontset-font t '(#x10000 . #x1FFFF) '("Noto Color Emoji" . "unicode-bmp") nil 'append) (i
nsert "🥰")
(Also attached to this mail).
Then the crash can be reproduced like this:
$ emacs -q --file reproduce-crash.el --eval '(eval-buffer)'
X protocol error: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error) on protocol
request 138
When compiled with GTK, Emacs cannot recover from X disconnects.
This is a GTK bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gtk/issues/221
For details, see etc/PROBLEMS.
Fatal error 6: Aborted
It happens with Emacs 26.3 and also whith Emacs compiled from current
git master.
A similar problem happens when trying to show that font with "xfd"
$ xfd -fa "Noto Color Emoji"
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
X Error of failed request: BadLength (poly request too large or internal Xlib length error)
Major opcode of failed request: 138 (RENDER)
Minor opcode of failed request: 20 (RenderAddGlyphs)
Serial number of failed request: 208
Current serial number in output stream: 271
This color emoji font contains bitmaps of emoji.
