** Description changed:

  Having scim-gtk2-immodule installed and set GTK_IM_MODULE=scim, most
  GTK+ applications that link to libstdc++.so.5 will likely to crash,
  including mozilla/firefox/thunderbird from mozilla.org, Adobe Reader
  (acroread) version 7, etc.
  
- I am using Ubuntu
- 
- I just upgrade from Hoary to Breezy.  After the upgrade, the acroread (7.0.0)
- does not work. 
- 
- When I try to start acroread from my terminal, after intput "acroread",  it
- hangs there for seconds without reporting any error, then just stops. No GUI
- appears at all.
- 
- It's repeatable.
+ The work around is using XIM mode or scim-bridge (needs to have some
+ scim-bridge-* packages installed), by setting GTK_IM_MODULE to xim or
+ scim-bridge, respectively.  The correct way to set GTK_IM_MODULE should
+ be using im-switch, but I am not quite sure about the exact im-switch
+ settings in Ubuntu (and I think it changed from release to release).
