Diego, please be more clear. I am not saying it here because I want to brag 
regarding a fixed issue that I just reported. Still I am not sure whether 
your solution is a hack or a neat fix. I am saying it here because I want 
people who said it's a hack and this problem should be solved in glibc to 
come and argue about it now. I also don't know whether you followed a thread 
here before. Afterall, everyone should know about any Arabic related problem 
that's fixed so he won't waste time duplicating the work.

I really didn't like your reply but let's hope it's a misunderstanding!
