They were never in the 'emoji' script anyway.

    Eli> You are the one who did most of the footwork, so kudos to you.

    Eli> This is simple enough to install on emacs-29, I think?

The main change is in font.c, and looks like this. I think itʼs too
big for emacs-29 (breaking composition is very easy, itʼs entirely
possible Iʼve missed a few cases :-) )
