I tested it and reproduced the problem.  Using GNU Unifont instead of
-efont-biwidth-*--16-* also reproduced exactly the same problem.

I imagine the problem is related to the fact that both of GNU Unifont
and -efont-biwidth- fonts contain both singlewidth and doublewidth
characters and have avgWidth same to singlewidth characters.
However, I have no idea how this problem occurs.  For example,
when double width characters are dispalyed one by one (by inputing
these characters one by one on the shell using XIM), the characters
are displayed well.
