Rendering problem for specific CJK characters

When font is set to "Noto Sans", some specific CJK characters (including 一, 夏, etc.) are not rendered correctly (see
this screenshot). This happens in both GTK and Qt applications.

The last known version of noto fonts that does not have this problem is 20201226, so this issue could have been around for a while.

Cannot reproduce using 2.004 (from Archlinux repository). Is your system Japanese or Chinese?

Neither. My system locale is set to English (US).

Just tried switching to the Japanese locale and the problem is actually gone, but I don't really want to daily drive my laptop in Japanese 😕
