Works now. 

Some other notes:

* bidi-ehud (or selecting the "ehud" menu item seems to have the same
  effect as turning off bidi display)

* Rant: Shouldn't it be built with gtk support? I got used to decent menus...

* I built a crued rpm package for RH7.3 at work. I have not yet found
  any tester there, and I have some reasons to suspect it is not good
  so I din't upload it for now. But if anybody's interested...

* Generally the process for building an rpm is to adapt an existing rpm,
  instead of writing one from scratch. If someone needs help on any
  other distro, let me know.
