I had a first crack at this. XmbLookupString is never called because
FRAME_XIC (f) is NULL, so lines 6413--6441 are skipped and
XLookupString is called instead. The result gets categorized as a
NON_ASCII_KEYSTROKE_EVENT.
Where is FRAME_XIC (f) supposed to be set? My first impression is
that that is where the problem is (possibly a configuration problem?)
Any further guidance or tips will be appreciated.
