You could try the Multy_key functionality from Xkb. I have no idea in
what hateful way you can graphically configure this in Gnome, but for me
the following command suffices:

    xmodmap -e 'keycode 117 = Multi_key'

This maps the windows "menu" key to the Multi_key, after which I can
easily compose characters like ł, by guessing the things that the
character looks like. In this case, I hit:

    multi / l
