Hi Hangyu,
While the fix looks correct - can you please describe how you came
across this issue? Was it a tool or by inspection? Do you have a text
case that triggered something etc, etc.

I discovered this accidentally when I used gdb to debug a program that
uses em_text. And I think putting the code in the commit log will will
