Bug 318071 deals with the same problem, but for Lohit Kannada. That bug was
closed with the comment that a fix "is not possible in the current opentype
framework."

However the Pothana2000 font from http://www.kavya-nandanam.com/dload.htm is
able to render these combinations correctly.

I hope Lohit Telugu and Lohit Kannada could be fixed to handle these
combinations just like Pothana2000.

BTW the gnome bug above says the problem isn't seen in Kannada, which isn't
true. Just that the problem is less noticeable when compared to Telugu (since
in Kannada the virama connects to the right of the first consonant anyway,
unlike in Telugu where it connects to the top).
