Ah, it appears that the ~/.fonts/NotoColorEmoji.ttf is not being found.
The emojis are all Symbola. If I delete all the fonts (including
Symbola) from my ~/.fonts, with the exception of NotoColorEmoji.ttf,
then C-u C-x = shows the emoji to be now Unifont. It looks like a problem
with my font configurations or with my copy of NotoColorEmoji.

Thanks.
