word with diacritics not displaying correctly

Reported by josephmo...@gmail.com, Sep 8 2017

Issue description

UserAgent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_6) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/60.0.3112.113 Safari/537.36

Example URL:
http://libcat.dartmouth.edu/record=b6649161~S1

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Go to URL 
2. Look in the title field
3. Compare that title with the boxes in it to the title displayed in the chrome tab. In the tab, it shows the word "Amerikantsy." In the title field, it looks like this "Amerikant︠s︡y"

What is the expected behavior?
It should display the title correctly.

What went wrong?
I think it's showing the boxes because it's somehow failing to display the letters which are meant to be displayed with combining diacritics.

Does it occur on multiple sites: N/A

Is it a problem with a plugin? No 

Did this work before? N/A 

Does this work in other browsers? Yes

Chrome version: 60.0.3112.113  Channel: stable
OS Version: OS X 10.12.6
Flash Version: 

Thanks for taking a look!

[mac bug triage] The problem may be with the font being used on the page (it perhaps does not have the characters needed to display the text correctly).

Inspector shows it correctly as well. Document charset is UTF-8.

So far as I can tell this is a font/text rendering issue, not an encoding issue.
