It's basically unrelated.

This is about the internal representation in X of a symbol actually on
the keyboard that happens to correspond to a Unicode character and not
to an existing X key symbol, not about the entry of UCS characters by
multiple key symbol sequences, which is an input method question.

(A key symbol in X corresponds to one of the symbols that is painted
on the key top.)
