There is a new ALPHA (testing) workaround for this bug using MLterm API,

To test get the latest build of MLterm from sf.net, here are some
instructions:

you will need this packages build-essential, mercurial (to pull source
code), libvte-dev and  libfribidi-dev

Start by getting the latest build:
$ hg clone  http://mlterm.hg.sourceforge.net:8000/hgroot/mlterm/mlterm

Then building:
$ cd mlterm
$./configure --with-type-engines=xcore,xft --enable-fribidi
$make
$cd gtk/
$make

ATTENTION: don't forget to backup libvte.so.9 (you might use locate to
find it) before continue.

Using the library from our build and linking,

$ cp mlterm/gtk/.libs/libvte.so.9.0.0 [where official libvte is installed]
$ ln -sf libvte.so.9.0.0 [where official libvte is installed]/libvte.so.9

Known issues:
* Gnome-terminal dose not start with compiz enabled
* Synaptic crashes when it should display terminal output

Please test ,report and help patching if possible. MLterm mail-list is:
