With my default font (DejaVu Sans Mono), which does correctly display
the grave a, describing the combined characters gives the following
Composed with the following character(s) "̀" using this font:
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
by these glyphs:
[0 1 97 68 9 1 8 11 0 nil]
[0 1 768 648 0 2 6 12 -9 [-9 0 0]]
And describing them individually gives the following
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans
Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1 (#x44)
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans
Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1 (#x288)

Out of the 3 mentioned there ("m17n-db", "libm17n-flt", "libotf")
- I see the following 2 installed (and up-to-date) on my system
(arch): m17n-db, m17n-lib, libotf.
- Looking through my emacs's config.log, I see reports that the
following two were detected: M17N_FLT, LIBOTF.
