Of course it is.  The Carbon Emacs code is a development version of Emacs.
If he keeps his discussion here, at best he'll end up with some workaround
in his .emacs and the next upcoming release will still require other people
to use the same workaround.  A development version, contrary to a released
version, is a malleable thing where problems can be fixed rather than
worked around.

There doesn't seem to be any good reason why a user should do anything
special under Carbon Emacs to use the mac-roman encoding/fonts if it's the
default in the system.  So maybe the defaults under Carbon Emacs should be
changed accordingly.
