Comment:

 Thanks for the bug report, @superpoincare!

 I've been able to reproduce the same behaviour under Android 7.1.1. The
 problem is that `emoji-loader.js` is using U+200B (zero width space) in
 the test, instead of U+200D (zero width joiner).

 Everywhere that `browserSupportsEmoji()` uses character 8203 needs to be
 changed to character 8205.
