I am using Japanese (Kanji) version of System.
I can't change window font to Kanji font in MACL 1.3.2, even if I 
change *fred-default-font-spec* settings.

Maybe MACL 1.3.2 sets grafport fonts in wrong manner.

But the problem seems to be fixed in MCL2.0b1.
And I can use Kanji codes (2byte codes) perfectly with some deamon
methods to fred-window.

I am not sure I could understand your problem correctly.
But I think you had better obtain a copy of MCL2.0b1

I am currently using MCL2.0b1p2 with the Japanese (Kanji) version of 
System 6.0.7.
