Ok, I found a bug: current luatex initializes the internal paragraph
direction specifier too soon. There are two ways to workaround this
bug: either use 'hyphenate' callback in the example code below, or
set the 'hyphenate' callback as well (and call tex.linebreak()
somewhere within). The third option is to compile TRUNK from the
repository.
