Since I don't know much about this, but am the first to respond,
my first guess is sniff around in src/Fl_x.cxx -- that's where much
of the X specific code is. If motivated and X knowledgeable, you may
be able to find the problem before the devs.
xdiff(1)ing 1.1.10 against 1.3.x for that file, I see a lot of new
X Input Method (XIM) stuff was added in 1.3 to support multiple languages..
might be something to do with that.
The man page on XOpenIM indicates locale is taken into consideration,
so possibly LOCALE settings are coming into play here as well, eg:
locale
printenv | egrep 'LC_|LANG'
