U+2205 is the empty set symbol, generally drawn with a circle rather
than an oval, and with a slash that protrudes noticeably on both ends.
  Besides the Norwegian letters that you identified, there's also
U+2298 (circled solidus) and U+2300 (symbol for "diameter").   None of
these looks much like the slash version of the digit 0, however.

Does your typesetting system deal with combining characters?  You
could try a 0 followed by a combining slash (U+0338).

I'm sure there must be some font out there that has the slashed glyph
as its standard zero, though.
