Sorry, you are on your own, then.  The only similar problem I saw
previously on my system is fixed by the changes I committed.  There's
something else going on with dead keys, obviously, but without knowing
what's wrong, I cannot fix that.  Try stepping through the code around
lines 2973 to 3047 of w32fns.c, and see what is going on there when
you type the dead key and the one after it.  If you tell what you see,
maybe I can suggest a solution.
