   Hi Thomas,
  
   yes, I'm talking about dead keys = compose sequences.
  
   Was it possible to you to reproduce it in your environment? Typing dead 
   key ` apostrophe
   then press letter a while the mouse pointer is over the scrollbar area 
   of an xterm?
  
  yes - I can reproduce it.  Actually once I was made aware of the issue,
  I could see in my mind where the problem might lie.  But I just verified
  it since you reminded me (on one of my Linux machines).
  
  My idea about the problem is that since xterm has setup translations
  (which capture the input) on more than one widget (without appearing to
  address this special case), that it might be that there's a better point
  in the widget to attach the translations to.
  
  This was discussed a little late in the #277 cycle to want to hold that
  up, so I had in mind to spend some time investigating a solution for it
  during #278.
  
 
 
 Hi Thomas,
 
 I would like to report, that above problem still exists.
 I tested against xterm-281.

yes (I spent some time investigating this, but did not yet find a solution)

Hm. That's very strange. So the error is already present in this simple
setting.  

It would be great if you could check what happens with remote usage with
other hosts where the problem does not occur (eg other unices)

win-host$ XWin -ac :0
unix-host$ DISPLAY=win-host:0.0 twm

You could also try Xming which uses a different network layer
http://freedesktop.org/wiki/Xming

$ /cygdrive/c/Program Files/Xming/Xming :0
$ DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 twm

(please notice it's localhost:0.0 instead of :0.0 because Xming does not
support unix sockets)

bye
