</div>How does the attached tile look to you?<br>
<br>
The problem is that Mapnik does not handle non-Arabic right-to-left<br>
strings. I used that attached patch to generate this tile. If you say<br>
the output looks OK then I'll forward to the Mapnik developers and apply<br>
it on the OSM tile server.<br>
