    Andale Mono WT from Monotype has 50,422 glyphs. At least, that's how many
    the slightly old version I have contains. My guess is that they have a
    newer version with more glyphs. Sorry, Michael.

    By the way, since Mac OSX supports datafork TrueType fonts as well as
    traditional Apple resource fork fontsm you could easily make a single
    binary that will work equally well on the latest versions of Mac, Windows
    and Linux operating systems.
