I think ICU is another possible option.

I saw <a href=http://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=4628>Bug 4628</a>. We
could add a check -- if LINUX then use ICU for Thai word breaking instead of
Carbon?

But then we need an explicit dependency between ICU and WebKit (in Ubuntu where
I tested there seems none though). The above patch will look for libthai and
use it dynamicially if exists, without forcing users to install it. For Thais,
compile-time linking is of course better but for the rest non-Thai-speaking
users, this dynamic method may save their bandwidth and disk space.
