I am puzzled. Anyway, it actually works in acme too, but differently than I remember from before.
I now have to press and *release* the compose key and then continue; i.e. to write alpha I have to - press left alt (my compose key) - release left alt - press shift and 8 (together it's *) - release those - press a This is different from the behaviour in xterm, where the compose key can be hold down during the step of shift+8. So at least it works somehow.
