A problem indeed
You can try running:
BIDITEXT_OPTIONS=TRACE_ANY biditext evolution
You will notivce that biditext is consulted for strings in the menu and in
the title line (if your LC_TIME is hebrew you'll have a hebrew date in the
top line, and you'll see that it is biditext-ed).
It seems that the bonobo components that display those parts (and are
seperate processes) were spwaned from a process for which
LD_PRELOAD=biditext.so wasn't set.
This probably means that biditext will be problematic whereever bonobo is
involved (at least biditext won't be needed on gtk2)
The way I see it, you either have to set biditext for all of the bonobo
components, or for none at all, but I'm no gnome expert.
