Retrospective commit from 2009-09-26. Continued working on initialization. Started working on paragraph direction initialization. bidi.c (bidi_paragraph_init): Don't set bidi_it->ch_len. Abort if called not at beginning of a new paragraph. (bidi_get_next_char_visually): Prepare and use a sentinel iterator state when first_elt flag is set. dispextern.h (struct bidi_it): New struct member first_elt. bidi.c (bidi_init_it): Initialize bidi_it->first_elt. (bidi_copy_it): Don't copy the first_elt flag. xdisp.c (reseat_1): Initialize bidi_it.first_elt. Move bidi scan start code from here... (next_element_from_buffer): ...to here. Use bidi_it.first_elt flag.

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.
