Thanks, but that's not necessarily the answer to my question.  AFAICS,
Courier New doesn't have a glyph for this character.

Do you have BabelMap installed?  If not, could you install it, and
then see which fonts cover this character on your machine?  Here, I
have the following ones:

  Arial Unicode MS
  Code2000
  FreeSans
  FreeSerif
  Lucida Sans
  Mangal

and Emacs actually chooses the last one when it displays this
character.
