no, I actually really want to use GTK+'s own input method...  can you
point me to references on how to use them?  (I am a bit internet-impaired
at the moment, laptop was stolen, I can use email but home browsing
is more or less limited to my maemo5 device)  what I suspect is that
there's a problem with dead_stroke and dead_breve, and I base this on:

1) xmodmap manages to alter GTK+ composition tables for all dead keys
   except dead_stroke and dead_breve.

2) on maemo5, which is AFAIU GTK+ based, I am using its own keyboard
   definition table and dead_stroke and dead_breve do not work.

to verify my suspicion I want to use GTK+'s native input method on my
old desktop system and check if there I do manage to get dead_stroke
and dead_breve to work.
