Trying to understand this a little better. Right now I think I didn't
describe it correctly in the bug description above.

To me it looks like IBus totally overrides the functionality provided by
libx11.

http://manpages.ubuntu.com/manpages/trusty/man5/Compose.5.html

The reason, why '+c = รง under the pt_BR.UTF-8 locale when IBus is
enabled, seems to be that some of the X11 compose rules have been
hardcoded in the IBus source code. So far so good, but if you want to
customize the behavior with e.g. a ~/.XCompose file, you need to disable
IBus.

Tried with uim. Unlike IBus, uim seems to truly honor X11 compose.
~/.XCompose works under uim.

So, since this bug was filed as a fcitx ditto: Would the use of
xkbcommon result in fcitx honoring X11 compose in the same manner as
e.g. uim?
