Actually this change revealed two bugs.

Yes.  That's one bug.  I added an entry for muletibetan-0 in
font-encoding-alist.

Another bug is the handling of unknown encoding in X font
backend, which caused that weird one-pixel wide empty box.
I fixed that too.

But, please note that these fixes results in selecting the
font:
  -tibmdxa-fixed-medium-r-normal--16-*-72-72-m-160-muletibetan-0
instead of the gnu-unicode font in your environment.
