FACE_FOR_CHAR will get you the face with the correct font, and calling
get_glyph_face_and_encoding after that will produce the glyph codes
from that font.  So that's exactly why I commented why your additional
code must be before the loop that produces the glyph codes (inside
get_glyph_face_and_encoding).
