Thanks a lot for all your hints!<br>
However, when I tried Kirk's example (see below) I noticed that bib<br>
wasn't yet installed. After installing bidi it complained that iftex.sty<br>
was not available. But after installing iftex I got the following error<br>
message:<br>
<br>
! Package bidi Error: TeX engines other than XeTeX and LuaTeX are not<br>
yet supported.<br>

It *may* be relevant. But I've never felt the need to use Babel with xelatex. And Polyglossia was intended to provide functionality of Babel under xe(la)tex. Take a look at that package to see if it might meet your needs.<br>
