Emacs installed via homebrew (--with-cocoa enabled) freezes with 100%

editors handle the file just fine (and default mac emacs opens it, but
doesn't display emojis).
Steps to reproduce:
1. emacs -Q
2. open a file that contains a unicode emoji (my test file has a burger icon in it - 🍔)
3. emacs will stop responding and keep the CPU at 100%
I can’t reproduce this with the master branch. Are you sure it’s just
the presence of the emoji and not something else?
I used this command to create a test file:
echo "🍔" > /tmp/test.txt
Is there a way to at least not display emojis (I’m fine with blocks)?
GUI Emacs doesn’t display emojis. It’s possible homebrew have included
a patch to enable them.
Can you test with a build direct from git, or a nightly build from
emacsformacosx.com?
