It relates to how the issue came to light. Program output included
sequences composed of blank line, line of Arabic and then a sentence
starting off in ASCII and containing an empty pair of parentheses. The
point was that fixing the error was not urgent; there were other ways
of fixing the problem. The Emacs' default paragraphing rules are
simply wrong for the application.
Richard.
