Here are some reference pointers I found during researching, which you may find helpful:


* About how to get other fonts to work inside the Console, and why some will never work: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;Q247815
* How to configure the command window: http://commandwindows.com/configure.htm
* List of available codepage identifiers and their numeric equivalents to use with chcp: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms776446.aspx (what's missing in that list are 65005 = UTF-32LE, and 65006 = UTF-32BE)
* The story why OEM and ANSI and default locale don't match: http://blogs.msdn.com/michkap/archive/2005/02/08/369197.aspx


Even after extensive googling, I could not find a definite reference (not even a bug report) of why batch files fail once you set the codepage to 65001. Microsoft doesn't mention it all (but that's no news, is it..)
