I wish people would stop telling me this. It is a matter of fact that
changing LANG on my Red Hat box affects compose. At what level this
happens is irrelevant.
Setting LANG=en_GB.UTF8, I cannot compose at all - no combination of
multi_key, comma and c can give me ccedilla. With other $LANG values, it
works in various different ways.
This is without changing *anything* else.

Then tell me what magic I need to compose *anything* with
LANG=en_GB.UTF8.
