I tried the Windows version of Mozilla 0.9.2 and it exhibits the wierdest
behaviour - on a "visual hebrew" page, where a lot of paragraph are to be
rendered, each one a single line of text (common to "visual hebrew"), some
lines are rendered properly (that is - correctly reversed), while others are
rendered backwards, and for no apparent reason - it appears as if the
direction of text rendering is completly random.
I didnot encounter the same behaviour in Linux.
