This "combined diacritic" is actually LATIN SMALL LETTER N. That's what the *Help* buffer says. You can also see this when reading the "preferred charset" value.

How is it when you launch GNU Emacs without customisation? This can be achieved from the command line as "<path to>/Emacs.app/Contents/MacOS/Emacs -Q &".

With Cmd-T the Mac OS X font chooser comes up and you can select a font and also its size. C-h H produces the *HELLO* buffer with a few interesting scripts…
