(the letter after =` is ccaron, the one of letters from Czech alhpbet).
We can see, that Unicode font is needed, because the character slot is
"10D and this is greater than 255 and impossible to prit it by 8bit font.
You asked about fonts, not about input encoding :)
Using active characters could 'fix' your problem by reverting
everything back to horrible 7bit mode, I assume.
But it is true that luatex is not the same as pdftex with it's
8-bit input extensions, so it is not quite identical. Sorry,
I misinformed you about that.
