Can you please try the 23.0.90 pretest. I can't reproduce the problem, 
but since it involves Tamil, it may depend on the fonts installed and 
the uniscribe version.

Please try the 23.0.91 pretest so we can find out if this problem has 
already been fixed since October.

Thanks for this bug report. As you know this is bug 2332. Have you
followed Jason's advice there to test it with the pretest version.

Unfortunately I can't upload a new patched version at the moment.
