This bug report will be sent to the Bug-GNU-Emacs mailing list
and the GNU bug tracker at debbugs.gnu.org.  Please check that
the From: line contains a valid email address.  After a delay of up
to one day, you should receive an acknowledgment at that address.

Please write in English if possible, as the Emacs maintainers
usually do not have translators for other languages.

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug, and
the precise symptoms of the bug.  If you can, give a recipe
starting from `emacs -Q':

 emacs -Q
 C-u C-\ hebrew-full RET

Then look at the input method's indicator at the left edge of the mode
line.  It should be displayed as a single composed character with 2
diacriticals.  Instead, on Windows XP, it is displayed as 3 separate
characters, one after the other.  (On Windows 7 Emacs displays them
correctly, but that's because the font driver "composes" the
diacriticals for us.)

For some reason, Emacs does not compose the first and the second
characters (AYIN and HIRIQ) when we display them on the mode line.
But they _are_ composed when they are displayed in a buffer, just
visit leim/quail/hebrew.el and search for "hebrew-full".

In the debugger, I clearly see the composition in the glyph row
created for buffer display:

  Breakpoint 5, display_line (it=0x82ca00) at xdisp.c:19258
  19258     struct glyph_row *row = it->glyph_row;
  (gdb) n
  19261     void *wrap_data = NULL;
  (gdb) pgrow

but I see a strange single-character "composition" when the same 3
characters are displayed from a Lisp string on the mode line:

  Breakpoint 6, display_string (string=0x0, lisp_string=55651665,
      face_string=54827034, face_string_pos=0, start=0, it=0x82c9e0,
      field_width=0, precision=-1, max_x=0, multibyte=1) at xdisp.c:21887
  21887     int hpos_at_start = it->hpos;
  (gdb) pp lisp_string
  #("עִ֫" 0 3 (mouse-face mode-line-highlight local-map (keymap (mode-line keymap

  (gdb) finish

  20543                   n += display_string (NULL, elt, Qnil, 0, 0, it,
  Value returned is $8 = 3
  (gdb) pgrowx it->glyph_row

Why isn't Emacs composing these characters when they are displayed
from a Lisp string?

If Emacs crashed, and you have the Emacs process in the gdb debugger,
please include the output from the following gdb commands:
    `bt full' and `xbacktrace'.
