This seems to indicate that compositions are turned off, and what you
see is the font backend's features, not Emacs features.

The fact that you needed to invoke auto-composition-mode seems
consistent with this, because auto-composition-mode is turned on by
default (AFAIK), and this invocation turns it off, I think.
