In my case I found the same issue with Lohit Tamil with the Pango
rendering
engine (used in GTK+/GNOME/etc.). Downloading the source for my version of
Pango and changing one of its file worked for me.
The latest version of the pango file can be viewed here:
http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/pango/trunk/modules/indic/indic-ot-class-tabl...
In the array tamlCharClasses[], entry 55 (corresponding to unicode character
0BB6) should be changed to _ct instead of _xx for "sh," "shaa,"
"shi," etc. to
be rendered properly.
If I can get over my laziness I'll probably file a bug for this on Pango.
I found that there is already a bug for this in Pango:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=481203
This was also tracked here in bug 218905 which has since been closed for being
filed against an old rawhide version.
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=127113 shows the rendering with the
fix in Pango (with no fix required in Lohit Tamil for this particular issue).
