FWIW, on Windows 7 Home I get four matches, and I haven't installed
any Khmer support (at least, not directly; perhaps some product?).

According to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Uniscribe since the Sinhala
Enabling Patch there's been about a dozen new versions, the last one
in Windows 7 and the beta for Microsoft Office 10.

That gets me the same list.

As for the bug, I don't see it either. Moving the cursor on the Khmer
list, the cursor appears as wide as the character it is upon (i.e., is
very small but perfectly visible over U+179A KHMER LETTER RO), and
neither forward nor backward movement shows anything unexpected.
