Seems to. Since I got the G4 I've been doing more work on my Mac (helps
that I upgraded that monitor as well -- need lotsa space for all those
palettes <g>), and I've found that at least setting the property there gets
fonts mapped correctly for Windows as well.
Since the 0 is not documented (is it?), I'm only guessing that it's
reliable; seems to work well here on both platforms.
