input area is stretched under zh_CN.UTF-8 locale
My environment: Linux: Gentoo Linux glibc: 2.8_p20080602 xorg-server: 1.5.2 glib: 2.18.3 gtk+: 2.14.5 cairo: 1.8.4 pango: 1.22.3 firefox: 3.0.4 xulrunner: 1.9.0.4 Tested with the master, 1.8.4, origin/1.8 in the git repository and the 1.6.4 from tarball, they all have the same problem. I notice that, when firefox invode under LC_MESSAGES=en_US.UTF-8, they all works fine, but under zh_CN.UTF-8, they all fail to get the right render result. Thanks! after whole night testing and down grade to pango-1.20.5, this bug was gone. so I think this is no the bug of cairo. close it :) What changed in Pango was how it falls back to the language from your locale. Srsly, take it to Firefox guys.

Created attachment 20830 [details] google in firefox under en_US.UTF-8 locale Since upgraded to cairo-1.8.0 a few months ago, the input area in firefox become very wide. Thinking this is very obvious and will be fix in a short time, I did not file a bug. However, after upgrading to cairo-1.8.4 today, I found that this bug is still there :( In order to make a comparation, I got two screen shot of the firefox on the same www.g.cn, the normal one is under en_US.UTF-8 locale; the stretched one is under zh_CN.UTF-8. the locale is shift via gdm. The gnome-menu also have wide blank after characters, but I fail to take a screenshot when I activate gnome-menu, but the width of blank area after text in gnome-menu is nearly the same length of the longest text in the same menu. I guess that, may be the text width calculation encounter a error when shift from single-byte width character to multi-bytes width character in cairo, which causes this bug.
