Ok, here are the results. All configurations except the last work.

The program was compiled using DJGPP v201.

es and bp is the seg:off you asked for, font_seg is probably not
interesting and src and dest is calculated from seg:off respectively
font_seg: 
src =  ( ( (unsigned)regs.x.es ) << 4 ) + regs.x.bp;
dest = ( (unsigned)font_seg ) << 4;

QEMM, QDPMI, DJGPP v201: works fine:
es = 0xffff; bp = 0xb4f2; font_seg = 0x2cee; src = 0x10b4e2; dest = 0x2cee0.

QEMM, QDPMI, DJGPP v202: works fine:
es = 0xffff; bp = 0xb4f2; font_seg = 0x2cf8; src = 0x10b4e2; dest = 0x2cf80.

QEMM, CWSDPMI, DJGPP v202: works fine:
es = 0xffff; bp = 0xb4f2; font_seg = 0x2634; src = 0x10b4e2; dest = 0x26340.

EMM386, No DISPLAY.SYS, DJGPP v202: works fine:
es = 0xc000; bp = 0x4ab0; font_seg = 0x2a34; src = 0xc4ab0; dest = 0x2a340.

No EMM386, DISPLAY.SYS, DJGPP v202: works fine:
es = 0xffff; bp = 0xbf32; font_seg = 0x5634; src = 0x10bf22; dest = 0x56340.


EMM386, DISPLAY.SYS, DJGPP v202: crashes:
es = 0xffff; bp = 0xbf32; font_seg = 0x2e34; src = 0x10bf22; dest = 0x2e340.
