In one of my KDE installations (latest unstable) dead keys for composing 
characters with diacritical marks such as accents do not work *in KDE 
applications*.

Say, when I try to enter an accented character in the Subject line in 
KMail, I get this

<acute accent> + a -> a
<grave accent> + a -> `a

When I select "Simple Composing Input Method" for the Subject line, I 
get the results I want. But that setting does not stick and it ought to 
work with XIM anyway; at least it does in KDE on another machine.

Also, when I run xterm within KDE, there dead keys work as intended. 
Obviously there must be some difference between my two machines, it's 
just that I can't find the relevant difference in their KDE/X 
configurations.

Any hints?

Michael
