I'm getting:

[Message part 2 (image/png, inline)]
[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]
But indeed, the x and the ⃝ are from different fonts, so this isn't
surprising.

We have a number of open bug reports in this area.  At least 44784,
23292, 17739, which may or may not be the same underlying problem.
(Probably different issues, really.)

I haven't looked at the machinery here at all -- is there a fundamental
reason why Emacs can't combine glyphs from different fonts?
