I'm implementing the next step of combining characters. Separating out
combining characters that couldn't be combined into a list for drawing as
superimposed characters later on.
So I gather these and there positions (the index of the last non-combining
character).
Then I need to know how characters are re-organised by the BIDI step.
So I changed the call in FBidi.c to this:

pos_l_to_v = 
          (unsigned short int *)safemalloc((str_len + 1) * 
                                           sizeof(unsigned short int));
fribidi_log2vis(
                logical_unicode_str, str_len, &pbase_dir,
                visual_unicode_str, pos_l_to_v, NULL, NULL);

where pos_l_to_v is upposed to contain a mapping afterwards.
But when I fprintf the content, all I get is
135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992
135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992 135243992
135243992

(in this case)

(The first string to be run through FlocaleEncodeString is " +8888 x +8888
"
(for calculating geometry windows..)

And also FVWM segfaults later on:

If I change "pos_l_to_v"  back to NULL in the call to FriBidi, it works as
before.

Am I foreseeing something here?
