The above result was not correct in a couple of points. First, the
font backend driver for the Mac port had a bug (*1). Second, OS X
10.7 and 10.8 seem to have a bug that they report incorrect lbearing
and rbearing values for Courier New (*2). In particlar, the lbearing
value is always reported as 0, as in the above result.

Mac OS X 10.6 does not have the second issue, and with the patch in
(*1), it reports the following result:
mac-ct:-*-Courier New-normal-normal-normal-*-13-*-*-*-m-0-iso10646-1
by these glyphs:
[0 1 1618 760 8 3 5 11 -8 [-1 2 0]]
[0 1 1593 969 8 1 8 5 4 nil]

The first glyph in the above result still has non-nil adjustments.
Another example is the Arabic "u-S-u" case for Arial 30pt (*3). It
consists of the following two grapheme clusters (from right to left):
[0 1 1613 755 0 1 7 2 4 [0 0 -3]]
[0 1 0 971 16 -1 15 15 -4 nil]
[2 2 0 970 14 1 15 13 7 [0 0 16]]
*3: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-gnu-emacs/2012-09/msg00178.html
As you explained, the grapheme clusters are in logical order, and
glyphs in each grapheme cluster are in drawing order. So simply
merging grapheme clusters as in the code in Ffont_shape_gstring does
not seem to be correct in the case of right-to-left text (what's drawn
later comes earlier in a merged grapheme cluster).
IMO, dividing glyphs into grapheme clusters is font backed driver's
task, and I don't understand why Ffont_shape_gstring merges the
grapheme clusters for some cases. Could you explain?
