Yeah X keyboard compose is broken for UK keyboards too so its doubly a
pain in the butt 8). And ^[[c doesn't reset the alt charset on a gnome
terminal which is PITA and I believe incorrect compared to my real VT terminak.

Some of the non X UTF-8 problems are kernel side. Notably some of the multichar
handling stuff. I've asked Andrew to test out a patch someone submitted using
