If so, would anyone know from where a Windows XP font
containing these five characters could be download?



Several fonts which come pre-installed in Windows NT, 2000 or XP have those characters, e.g. Arial, Times New Roman and Courier.



Aloha,



"Aloha"?

Is it for Hawaiian that you need the macrons? In that case also notice that,
afaik, the proper character for the glottal stop letter (aka "apostrophe" or
"okina") is MODIFIER LETTER TURNED COMMA (code 02BB, decimal 699).



Which is not included in Arial, Times New Roman or Courier New. So I guess everyone else uses a regular apostrophe (U+0027), or "this is the preferred character to use for apostrophe" (U+2019), or turned comma (U+2018). They are less likely to pay attention to whatever Unicode might say in some obscure place - although not in the character charts, in which U+02BC is mentioned as a representation of glottal stop.
