I tried reproducing this in Emacs 27, but used `C-u 1 8 9 3 C-f' instead
to get to that place in the Lao greeting.
But nothing in particular seems to happen when I `M-x' anywhere from
within the greeting, as far as I can see.

I have:
xfthb:-PfEd-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-17-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1 (#x4B9)
which is pretty similar...
Are you still seeing this problem or has it gone away in the nine years
