I see this problem in [2] but not in [1].

Recipe from "emacs -Q -nw":
  Type these characters: áéíóúñç

Note: With my spanish keyboard, I input the accented vowels by typing
the dead key [´] and then the vowel key (e.g [a]).  As for the "ñ" and
the "ç" characters, they have their own keys.

Well, in [1], I see the expected characters in the buffer (áéíóúñç), but
in [2] I see these characters instead: ßÚݾ·±þ
