See the page that demonstrates the problem
(http://grebulon.com/temp/ff103problem.html)
The page is in logical hebrew encoding: charset=iso-8859-8-I
The body is RTL: <body dir="rtl">
It has a table with two rows, one column is each. The column in the second row
is justified: <td ALIGN="JUSTIFY">

The first row comes out fine. The second is reversed.

1. Just load http://grebulon.com/temp/ff103problem.html on Linux
2. Load it on Windows
3. See the difference. On Windows it works fine.

Actual Results:  
It comes out like this:
זאת הכותרת ללא ישור
רושיי םע וישכעו


Expected Results:  
It should be like this:
זאת הכותרת ללא ישור
ועכשיו עם יישור

If you have Pango enabled this is a dupe of bug 284927, which is fixed on trunk.
Pango is enabled. Without it the hebrew won't work at all, wouldn't it? It seems
like a dupe. Sorry.

Just for the record, Hebrew (at least without vowels) works fine without Pango,
even with core X fonts.
Mass-assigning the new rtl keyword to RTL-related (see bug 349193).
Keywords: rtl
