I'm running -6 here, but it doesn't seem to matter, because...

...uxterm, you say. This gets interesting - uxterm works for
me according to the compose maps, that is it seems to be using
en_US.UTF-8/Compose; I *can* get per mille, I *can't* get aogonek.
Does this mean there's something broken in GTK/GNOME? Mozilla, Galeon,
gnome-terminal: all broken. xterm, uxterm, OpenOffice.org Writer:
all working.
