> It was claimed that GTK (or actually Pango) fixes this, how does it do this?

No, this is not true. The situation is, Behdad used a "mathematical" proof to prove that the bug is completely impossible to solve. His offered choices are:

1. set system locale to non-english one (irrelevant to this bug)
2. set $PANGO_LANGUAGE variable to force single locale within pango (and pango only)
3. Remove all crappy fonts picked up by fontconfig 
4. fuck off, bastard
