I built a debug version of Emacs specifically for this.

    ./configure --with-sound=alsa --with-x-toolkit=lucid --without-xaw3d \
                --without-gconf --without-libsystemd --with-cairo \
                --enable-checking='yes,glyphs' \
                --enable-check-lisp-object-type CFLAGS='-O0 -g3'

    (gdb) p composition_gstring_from_id(16)
    $3 = XIL(0x55b8cada607d)
    (gdb) xpr
    Lisp_Vectorlike
    PVEC_NORMAL_VECTOR
    $4 = (struct Lisp_Vector *) 0x55b8cada6078
    {XIL(0x55b8cada60ad), make_fixnum(16), XIL(0x55b8cada60d5), XIL(0x55b8cada612d), XIL(0x55b8cada6185)}

So I am guessing we do need to decypher it "by hand"?
