Details 
From a yiddish user:

the nightly build:
Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; SunOS 5.8 sun4u; en-US; rv:0.9+) Gecko/20010516

The text has Yiddish interpersed with numbers.  The Bidi algorithm 
does not present this text correctly.  The first line ought to start (on
the right) with "dovid hamelekh"; instead, it starts with "oyb er iz".

Worksforme, mozilla build 2001-07-02-08 on Linux.  I'm missing a few chars in my
font (the charset is detected as UTF-8), but the layout looks fine...

Arthur, is this still a problem in recent builds?
