No. It probably won't work as-is.
The fact that such a binary patch that substitues strings in the binaries
worked in one place does not mean it will work elsewhere. Actually, I
tried applying somethiing similar to the turkish patch on the windows
version of netscape 4.x once and failed.
Anyway, one could still try to use "web fonts": set the wont of the latin1
codepage to some webfont. But this is /ugly/.
