Well, I tried doing this too, but it didn't work.  In particular, it
fails to work with GTK+ apps.  A little digging revealed that GTK+
actually keeps its own private, hard-coded table of compose key
sequences, which is, IMHO, stupid.  I don't want to have to patch GTK+
to do something like this!  Using GTK_IM_MODULE=xim makes changes to the
Compose file reflect again. However, I don't want to do this either
ecause that would also prevent me from using SCIM, which I rely on to
input Japanese text.  Alas.
