| FYI,  Both share the same DBF reader so you should only have to apply it once.  Do you have a patch some where?

 All of the rendering is done in Geotools.  The "LabelCacheDefault"
 object is the object responsible for drawing the labels.  And
 DBFReader in the Shapefile plugin is responsible for reading from
 shapefiles.  Does Postgis render Arabic correctly or are all labels
 incorrect?
 
 The uDig SDK RC10 comes with the Geotools source code so you can
 probably use that to debug the problem.  If you can find a solution
 I'd be happy to apply it.
