Does this work on Windows in the windowed DOS sessions (i.e. not in 
full-screen mode)?

To do it on Linuxx, you will need the X fonts.  There's the intlfonts 
distribution on GNU FTP sites which you can use for this.

Emacs currently doesn't support this functionality in the DJGPP port, it
simulates non-existing fonts with ASCII characters (e.g. c cedilla is
displayed as {c,}).
