Title:
  Multi_key / compose does not work when XMODIFIERS="@im=SCIM"

Status in “emacs23” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “emacs24” package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released
Status in “emacs24” package in Debian:
  Fix Released
Status in “emacs23” package in Fedora:
  Unknown

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: emacs23

  Ubuntu 9.10
  emacs23:
    Installed: 23.1+1-4ubuntu3.1

  Using X with a configuration for SCIM input methods, environment
  variable XMODIFIERS then contains @im=SCIM

  Start emacs

  Hit Multi_key (aka Compose key, often bound to one of the Windows keys
  depending on keyboard layout and layout options) ' (single quote) e

  You should be getting é (e acute accent)

  Instead, emacs complains that <Multi_key> is undefined.

  Problem disappears if launching Emacs with XMODIFIERS="'
