When would an application running on Windows encounter this particular native behavior?
My expectation is that, because Windows ships with Courier New, this would never happen on real Windows. It doesn't matter what native does when you run it on Wine or a Windows install without the font, because application developers will never encounter that situation in testing and aren't going to write applications expecting it.
It's not going to be fully accurate behavior regardless, so why not do what the function is supposed to do and give the application a monospace font?
