Mike / Tobias,
I don't use deadkeys myself, being American and only speaking
programming languages, but after a few minutes of Googling I would guess
that it started here:
Commit by mej :: eterm/Eterm/ (ChangeLog configure.in):
Mon Apr 18 16:00:22 2005 Michael Jennings (mej)
Remove unused NO_XLOCALE crap and do it right.
and in configure.in:
# check if we need X_LOCALE definition
AC_CHECK_LIB(X11, _Xsetlocale, AC_DEFINE(X_LOCALE, , [X locale.]),
AC_DEFINE(NO_XLOCALE, , [No X locale.]))
# For multibyte selection handling
#if test "$MULTICHAR_ENCODING" != "none"; then
AC_CHECK_LIB(Xmu, XmuInternAtom)
#fi
and from the XFree86-4.3.0 Changelog:
http://www.hupo.org.cn/docs/linuxdoc/XFree86-4.3.0/CHANGELOG
952. A more complete set of dead accent/space compose sequences, add
<Multi_key> <slash> for letters with a "stroke", and add some
combos for exponent characters, katakana voiced sounds, etc to
the en_US.UTF-8 compose file (#5646, David Monniaux).
The bottom line is that a X_LOCALE needs to be specified so that things
know what to do with deadkey sequences. The same sequence can generate
different things in different locations. I would ask what X_LOCALE is
set to and try changing it. You (Mike) know more about this automagical
crap than I but I'd bet money (a little) that the problem is related to
MeJ's change on 18 April 2005.
Hope that helps.
BTW, do you know how to get gdb to display the contents of a xmm
register on AMD64 in hex? "info all-registers" and variants only show
the values as floats. (The registers are shared between the SSE and x87
stuff but I'm not using x87). And I tried gdb ver. 6.0-r1 in Gentoo,
6.3 from gnu.org and the latest cvs.
