Eli,

I've tried your src/xdisp.c patch.  It completely fixes scenarios (1)
and (2), without the need to set bidi-paragraph-direction.

I've tested the patch on two different systems: GNU/Linux (OpenSUSE
11.4) and Mac OS 10.6.  Same (good) results on both.

Thanks so much for the quick response!

Steve


(I've mailed this to 9610-done <at> debbugs.gnu.org; my intent was to
provide confirmation of the fix, but to leave bug 9610 closed.)
