I am not sure where to look for this.

Unicode callbacks (you want at least one):
        Glib:                   true

So I guess this is not the problem.

All I did was to do git pull && ./autogen.sh --with-graphite2=auto
--prefix=/usr/local && make && sudo make install.

Anyhow the latest commit 6e613f3 seems to fix whatever it is (though I
don't understand how the shift count fix could affect this).

If I do git checkout ac8cd51 and recompile, I still get the bug. By
doing git bisect I identified commit c16012e as the culprit but I have
no idea what that commit introduced which 6e613f3 corrected. Please
look into this a bit and identify it lest it resurface later on.

Thanks.

BTW about hb-indic -- do we still use that list?
