One more warning about using an uninitialized field, now BIDI-related:

==11279== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
==11279==    at 0x443145: compute_display_string_pos (xdisp.c:3582)
==11279==    by 0x500D93: bidi_fetch_char (bidi.c:953)
==11279==    by 0x501FF9: bidi_paragraph_init (bidi.c:1299)
==11279==    by 0x47AEAE: Fcurrent_bidi_paragraph_direction (xdisp.c:20419)

 From xdisp.c:

   3579    if (charpos >= eob
   3580        /* We don't support display properties whose values are strings
   3581           that have display string properties.  */
! 3582        || string->from_disp_str
   3583        /* C strings cannot have display properties.  */
   3584        || (string->s && !STRINGP (object)))
   3585      {
   3586        *disp_prop = 0;
   3587        return eob;
   3588      }

I don't know how critical it may be, but please consider the following precaution:
