The Latin character is composed, because Emacs knows how to do that.
You can verify with "C-u C-x =".

Can you tell what does window-text-pixel-size return for the а́ part of
the text, both with Menlo and with Monaco?

    ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The above line says that Menlo does have the glyph for the accent.
Emacs will not compose characters from different fonts.

Can you show the corresponding data when you use the Monaco font?

Thanks.
