Well, problem circumvented by actually *fixing* the system to use scim in XIM-dependent programs. My 
/etc/X11/xinit/xinput.d/skim file, which was chosen as the alternative for 
/etc/alternatives/xinput-all_ALL, was *incomplete*. I didn't have the option to choose scim or 
scim-bridge instead. That likely would've fixed the issue straight-away, since I only have scim 
installed because skim pulled it as a dependency.

The top of said skim file read:
Code:

XIM=SCIM
XIM_PROGRAM=" "

Obviously, the latter line worried me, since all guides and howtos I've read says to modify scim 
and/or scim-bridge to say the following:
Code:

XIM=SCIM
XIM_PROGRAM=/usr/bin/scim
XIM_ARGS="-d"
XIM_PROGRAM_SETS_ITSELF_AS_DAEMON=yes

So I modified it thus, logged out, did a /etc/init.d/kdm restart, and everything now works.
