With Firefox on a vanilla Windows XP installation, the aesc-with-macron looks somewhat fainter than other characters. With IE on the same machine, the aesc-with-macron doesn't even render for some reason.
I may be wrong, but I have a feeling Firefox can try to fill in missing characters from other fonts, whereas IE just ignores them; so the faint character is being pulled from some other Unicode font somewhere on your system. [Or something like that, I don't know the mechanics]
