Unrelated. Whether it's available as default language depends on whether locale
data is available. Language tags for which no locale data is available are
listed only for character attribution.

It's flagged as CTL (so it shows up in the CTL language list) and RTL (for
whatever queries for it). However, for text rendering this is irrelevant. Text
rendering uses the code points' Bidi Class property assigned by the Unicode
Standard, which for the Unicode block "Old Hungarian" 10C80:10CFF *is* RTL.
Given that was introduced with Unicode version 8.0, if it doesn't work it could
be that LibreOffice was build against / is used with an ICU library that
doesn't support Unicode 8 yet. For Unicode 8 support at least ICU 56 is needed.
Any lower version will not do. The LibreOffice 5.3 internal ICU is 58 but that
is used only in builds provided by TDF, Linux distributions usually build
against the ICU version available in their release.
Given that for Khaled the issue does not occur and assuming he uses the
LibreOffice internal ICU, my guess is that all boils down to the ICU version
used. Maybe the original poster could answer that question? Setting NEEDINFO.
If it's due to the ICU version there's nothing we can do and we should close
this as NOTABUG.</pre>
