* Use a temp buf to poke for the size of string vs passing nullptr.
For some reason this was working for most cases, but not greek.
Using a temp buf allows us to poke the greeks chars and others that
werent working. (LP: #1205713)

Bug description:
On Ubuntu 13.10 Saucy, when i switch to the Greek layout, i cannot type any
greek character to the Dash's search field.
The pointer does not move at all, which means that it is not just an
appearance problem, but there is no input at all of the character.
The same applies when i try to use the "Execute command" field that appears
when pressing the Alt+F2 keyboard shortcut.
This has only to do wiith greek characters, as other characters that are not
related to the keyboard layout (such as numerical characters, dots, comas,
hyphens etc) can be typed normally regardless of the keyboard layout setting.
** Workaround **
In the terminal:
im-config -n xim
Then reboot!
