Links always uses internal fonts in graphic mode. You can look the
"graphics/font/style/" directory in the links source code, every letter is a
png file in that directory. For example, kana fonts are here:

links-2.1pre16/graphics/font/japanese-medium-roman-sans-mono/

You can add a new character font adding a png file in that directory. Then,
rebuild the embedded fonts and compile. (I'm not sure, but I think so
reading the source code).
