Accents over Bars in LaTeX

Question

Neither combination of the following two elements renders a felicitous result: \={\'o} ~ \'{\=o}. In the first case the bar comes over the accent; in the second the accent appears right before the barred letter. How can I make a grave or acute accent over a barred letter?

Is this for IPA content? Can we see your font setup? – Qrrbrbirlbel Jun 13 '13 at 19:45 — Qrrbrbirlbel, Jun 13 '13 at 19:45
It is for IPA. The font is the same as below. – Eric May 02 '15 at 19:15 — Eric, May 02 '15 at 19:15

The ipa package allows

\documentclass{standalone}\usepackage{ipa}
\begin{document}
\texttt{ipa} \diatop[{\diatop[\'|\=]}|o]
\end{document}

enter image description here

The tipa package has \textacutemacron:

\documentclass{standalone}\usepackage{tipa}
\begin{document}
\texttt{tipa} \textacutemacron{o}
\end{document}

And the phonetic package has the following to offer (which seems to not work under T1 font encoding):

\documentclass{standalone}\usepackage{phonetic}
\begin{document}
\texttt{phonetic} \acbar{\'}{o}
\end{document}
