I'm working on this bug : https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=33090
"Thai text in some UI elements will be displayed overlapped on Windows Vista / Windows 7"

I've tried debugging the bug. Note: You must set the Option to "use system font for user interface" and the system font must not have Thai glyph (such as Segoe UI) so fallback mechanism kick-in.

Here's the steps I've tried.

1) First attach the debugger to the LO process, then

2) In Writer, choose File > Properties > Description tab > Title box, type
กิน
(Using Thai keyboard, type "dbo")

3) Then set the breakpoint at the (*pScriptTextOut)() call here
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/libs-gui/vcl/win/source/gdi/winlayout.cxx#2238

4) Still in the Title box, type an English character "a" to make
กินa
The character "a" will be displayed *over* "น" which is the characteristic of this bug. The English text run will be displayed starting after the first non-spacing mark ( ิ )

5) The breakpoint will fire. LO is about to textout the Thai run "กิน". Let's take note of some variables
aPos.nA = 0x9c --> X
aPos.nB = 0x39 --> Y
(mpGlyphAdvances + nMinGlyphPos)[] = [7, 0, 7, 6] --> the width of each character in "กินa"

6) In the debugger, run to continue debugging. The breakpoint will fire again. LO is about to textout the English run "a". Let's look at the variables again:-
aPos.nA = 0xa3  --> X
aPos.nB = 0x39  --> Y
(mpGlyphAdvances + nMinGlyphPos)[] = [6] --> the width of the character "a"

Please note that the value of aPos.nA should be 0xaa (0x9c + 7 + 0 + 7) but it is 0xa3 (0x9c + 7). It seems like that computation of the width of the last text run is stop at the first non-spacing character. We can repeat the same process with different text and always reach the same conclusion. However, we can't find the code that compute the aPos.nA before textout each run.

Anyone has an idea where should I start looking?
