The above is a page with Hebrew text that contains diacritics.
On chimera, letters overlap, characters ae in the wrong place etc., making the
page completely unreable.
With a recent Mozilla, the  display is not perfect (there are a few minor
issues) but the text is readble.
Both are using the same font (lucida grande)- and both have a bug which prevents
the user from changing the Hebrew font.

Both brwosers are running on osx 10.2.1

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. go to page
2. see rendering in chimera
3. compare with mozilla

Actual Results:  
page unreadble in chimera

Expected Results:  
should be as least as good as mozilla
Attached image The page in mozilla
The URL is apparently Windows-1252-encoded and specifies "David" font-family in CSS.

Lucida Grande (or at least the version that ships with OS X 10.1) doesn’t appear
to contain any Hebrew letters. For example, the text ישעיהו פרק מד shows up as
boxes when pasted into Key Caps showing Lucida Grande.

The Hebrew fonts I have available are Arial Hebrew, Corsiva Hebrew, Raanana, and
New Penimin MT.
THe version of lucida grande that sheeps with 10.1 does not have Hebrew.
However, the version that ships with 10.2 does have, as you can see very well
from the mozilla screen shot.
I can see this too. Possibly related to bug 172569?
Marking confirmed per comment 5.

like bug 172569 I think this was fixed (possibly with the  move to the trunk) as
it looks just fine for me
