Retrospective commit from 2009-09-19. Begin work on bidi initialization and other cleanup. Remove all STANDALONE code from bidi.c. xdisp.c (init_iterator): Call bidi_init_it. Set bidi_it->bytepos if buffer position specified. (reseat_1): Don't call bidi_init_it. Call bidi_paragraph_init instead. Move back to preceding character before the call to bidi_get_next_char_visually. bidi.c: Remove all STANDALONE parts. (bidi_init_it): Init bidi_it->charpos and bidi_it->bytepos to -1. Don't call bidi_paragraph_init. Change arguments. (bidi_paragraph_init): Remove code for negative pos. dispextern.h <bidi_it>: Rename orig_type to type_after_w1 and pristine_type to orig_type.

If you think you may have found a bug in GNU Emacs, please
read the Bugs section of the Emacs manual for advice on
(1) how to tell when to report a bug, and
(2) how to write a useful bug report and what information
it needs to have.

There are three ways to read the Bugs section.

(1) In a printed copy of the Emacs manual.
You can order one from the Free Software Foundation;
see the file etc/ORDERS.  But if you don't have a copy on
hand and you think you have found a bug, you shouldn't wait
to get a printed manual; you should read the section right away
as described below.

(2) With Info.  Start Emacs, do C-h i to enter Info,
then m Emacs RET to get to the Emacs manual, then m Bugs RET
to get to the section on bugs.  Or use standalone Info in
a like manner.  (Standalone Info is part of the Texinfo distribution,
not part of the Emacs distribution.)

(3) By hand.  Do
    cat info/emacs* | more "+/^File: emacs,  Node: Bugs,"

Please first check the file etc/PROBLEMS (e.g. with C-h C-p in Emacs) to
make sure it isn't a known issue.
