I've noticed that too quite a wile ago.  Gnome terminal (and terminator) 
don't handle properly composing Unicode characters.

The first character in the attached file "french ipa signs" is composed
of:

   <ɛ> Hex 025b  + < ̃>  Hex 0303     (utf-8 sequence: c9 9b + cc 83)

(you can check that by the ga or g8 command in vim)

0x303 is a composing character so normally it should be displayed on top of the 
previous character.
But gnome terminal does not do it properly.

gvim does display it properly.
