I started emacs with -Q, then I selected the "Set Default Font..." entry
from the Options menu, clicked on "Symbola Regular" and pressed the
select button. After doing that, `C-u C-x =' on a character in
*scratch* shows this:
xft:-UFAS-Symbola-normal-normal-semicondensed-*-15-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1 (#x37)
I don't know why the Arabic character info is different, but the display
is correct with Symbola as default font, but not with DejaVu.

I don't know if it's significant, but it's only first glyph line from
the harfbuzz build:
[0 2 1587 6022 0 1 6 16 -8 [0 3 0]]
that differs from the second glyph line from the master build:
[0 2 0 6022 0 -15 -10 13 -11 [-16 2 0]]
The second glyph line from the harfbuzz build:
[0 2 1587 1377 16 0 16 6 4 nil]
is identical to the first glyph line from the master build:
[0 2 1587 1377 16 0 16 6 4 nil]
