Subject: 27.2; A new MacOS display heisenbug

From: Devon Sean McCullough <[email-masked]>
Date: Sun, 18 Jul 2021 09:10:11 -0400

Glyph out of place, vertically shifted downwards:

Type ;; foo ⟡ bar
where a box ^ displays in place of the WHITE CONCAVE-SIDED DIAMOND
which can by typed by C-x 8 RET white concave-sided diamond RET
but renders as a box instead.

When I start Emacs, with or without init files,
the box is rendered in the correct screen position.

After editing for a while, the box renders on the line below.

		Peace

P.S.  Please find screen shots at http://jovi.net/Emacs-Bug/Render

Any debugging suggestions?

I'm mailing this bug report from a fresh "CLEAN" emacs,
not the long-running bug-manifesting "DIRTY" emacs.
