--- Comment #4 from Kim Bastin <kimb at comcen.com.au> ---
Well, this was a blast from the past. Nearly six and a half years ago!

I have just copied and pasted the bug description into LibreOffice Writer
4.0.1, the successor to OOo.Writer, and set the font to DejaVu Sans. The first
issue mentioned, non-appearance of certain diacritics on capital letters except
at large font sizes, has apparently been fixed. The characters listed display
correctly.

The second issue, with stacked diacritics above capital letters, is still
present at least in most cases, and as Ben Laenen remarks in Comment 1, the
problem is hard to fix. The only practical fix might be to reduce the height of
the base character in such cases so that all the diacritics fit within the
bounding box.
