A font labelled as GB18030.2000 doesn't necessarily contains
all characters of the charset GB18030.2000.

You are still confusing with the encoding and the repertory.
"GB18030.2000-0" is a part of a XLFD fontname showing the
encoding of the font, and it doesn't mean the repertory
(i.e. which characters are included in that font). That is
the same as any "ISO10646-1" fonts. AFAIK, none of them
contain all of Unicode BMP characters.
Anyway, have you tried the latest code? Does it still try
to display U+1F48 using the font "...-gb18030.2000-0"?
