[openbox] LIGHT arabic patch

[eminem Stan]

Well no not anymore, pango just needs glib, freetype and Xlib stuff, nothig 
out of the ordinary.
As to rendering arabic webpages, it's easy if you have the fonts. It's 
simpler than chinese or thai, I read they have to go through lot's of 
trouble to render correctly.

What you would notice is that while viewing an arabic webpage, openbox's 
titlebar will show the arabic, unshaped ( individual letters, not joined ) 
and the opposite way round ( Left to Right , while the correct is Right to 
Left ).

I'll try to get Uniball here before this conversation get's over my head.
