I /think/ that in X, emacs will select the closest font it can find to
in order to get the characters it needs. However, in Windows, it will
only use the default font (or whatever is explicitly specified for the
face), even if that font is missing characters. The only workaround
I've found for buffers that need a lot of Unicode characters is to use
DejaVu Sans Mono. Consolas is very nice, but its Unicode coverage is
not good.
