I get errors, but then I already have that create-fontset-... in my .emacs, 
to be precise I have the following:

(cond ((string-equal window-system "mac")
       (set-language-environment "Latin-1")
       (set-keyboard-coding-system 'mac-roman) 
       (create-fontset-from-fontset-spec
         
"-apple-monaco-medium-r-normal--10-*-*-*-*-*-fontset-monaco,ascii:-apple-monaco-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-m-100-mac-roman,latin-iso8859-1:-apple-monaco-medium-r-normal--10-100-75-75-m-100-mac-roman")
       ))

and I still get little boxes for the interesting characters.

I have what claims to be Emacs 21.3.50.1, running under OS X 10.2.8.
