Hi,

I have the same issue, but I've only gotten as far as finding out that
the FreeSerif, which Emacs uses as a fallback font for me, seems to be
responsible: If I install libreoffice, paste it there and change the
font to FreeSerif, the same thing happens. I tried switching the parts
for those two characters in the FreeSerif.sfd file in Debian's source
package, but without success.

I have also not managed to convince Emacs to use a different fallback
font, while keeping my preferred primary font.

Only if you read your mails outside of Emacs. :)

I'd also be interested in a fix for this, but I should probably report
it as a bug in Debian, too.

Cheers,
Daniel
