Hi,
In XFree 4.3.0 most of keymaps were changed to allow their combining into
one multi-layout keymap. But us_intl map was changed later. Therefore its
behavior depends on have you 'pure' 4.3.0 or some version with additional
patches.
Could you run
setxkbmap us_intl -print
and send its output?

You can try to use ISO_Level3_Shift keysym instead of Mode_switch. But as I
said it depends on later patches.

You mean you can combine dead_circumflex with e but the sequence dead_circumflex
and c produces nothing. Is it right?
The thing is that 'compose rules' in X Window are not a part of keyboard map
but a separate file which choice depends on the current locale. The symbol
ccircumflex can be composed in iso8859-3 and UTF-8 locales. If the locale
in your XFree 4.3 is one of UTF-8 ones but in your desktop the locale is C
(default) or some other but neither iso8859-3 nor UTF-8 you get such
difference.
