It's buggy and based on an old version of Emacs.  Last time I tried to  
build it, it segfaulted immediately when I tried to run the resulting  
binary.

Emacs 22 has vastly improved support for multi-lingual text, but still  
no bidi and no connected script.  So far the only solution I've found  
for editing bidi text is Katoob.
