Ah. George Williams has produced a font literally called "Monospace"
http://fontforge.sourceforge.net/sfds/index.html
It's not _currently_ included in the ttf-georgewilliams debian package,
but has sometimes been included in at least ubuntu's on occasion.
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/feisty/i386/ttf-georgewilliams/1.0-1
https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gw-fonts-ttf/1.0-1
(after installing monospace.ttf)
david@golden1:~/gw-fonts-ttf-1.0$ fc-list | grep -i monospace
Monospace:style=Oblique
Monospace:style=Medium
Monospace:style=Bold
emacs can pick it up and use it if it's there, unsurprisingly.
character: % (37, #o45, #x25)
preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
code point: 0x25
syntax: _ which means: symbol
category: a:ASCII graphic characters 32-126 (ISO646 IRV:1983[4/0])
