Aside: HELLO looks distinctly odd around the arabic lines in emacs -Q
but not with my normal config. Probably independent from the immediate
scrolling issue and possibly font-dependent, I'll file a separate bug.
Yes, emacs -Q is picking this font:
xft:-unknown-Metal-normal-normal-normal-*-13-*-*-*-*-0-iso10646-1
from debian package ttf-arabeyes:
/usr/share/fonts/truetype/ttf-arabeyes/ae_Metal.ttf
and "emacs" this font (in accord with my default font customisation):
xft:-unknown-DejaVu Sans Mono-normal-normal-normal-*-15-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
Actually, I suspect (not that I know arabic) both cases are displaying
it incorrectly (not composed), but it looks particularly off with the
former, with the character cell for the character taking up half the
screen. This might be partially a problem with the font in question.
