Very weird bug! (Summary for others: decomposed voiced sound mark is
rendered on the wrong base character.)

Not all that weird, really; it's almost certainly due to using a font that doesn't support the combining mark. Commented in the bug.

Thank you for the comment in the bug.

But I wonder if there is a clearly discernible property/attribute of a font which allows the combining of a mark and the other font that doesn't.

Basically, the issue appears under linux OS (Debian GNU/Linux) which I use daily.

Without knowing which font is causing the issue (not supporting the combining of mark), I can't fix it.

Since the "normalization" of string into canonical form under linux seems to solve the problem, I am inclined to have the OS or OS-supplied library do that, but I am not entirely sure where the rendering happens.

Come to think of it, I am not sure whether the iOS mail client handles the filename of an attachment that is sent from Windows or from Linux.
The party with whom I exchanged the problematic e-mails mentioned that
there are e-mails with attachments which cannot be saved under the original name and a machine-generated filename seemed to be used.
Oh well, I will investigate this a bit during holiday break.

TIA
