I have not tried reproducing it in other systems but I did try latest
master, and the text is still not shaped. However, I just noticed that
I missed this warning message that was written to stdout (which is
mostly why I did not notice it) when I close Emacs:
Warning: Missing charsets in String to FontSet conversion
I tried quickly grepping for "Missing charsets" and "Warning: " in Emacs
git repo but I don't see this particular warning in the results.
[ I realise that a lot of time could have been saved if I was more
attentive, sorry about that. ]
