Comment (by shlomil):

 db42: It actually __should_have_been__ as easy as moving html_is_rtl() and
 str_embed_direction_chars() from pidgin/gtkconv.c to libpurple/util.h and
 then using them in log.c, but str_embed_direction_chars() uses Pango and I
 don't want to add Pango dependency to libpurple... Looking again at the
 code, I think I might not need that Pango dependency after all, but this
 change requires additional testing. I'm working on it.
