Even with all those set, at least in FreeBSD, it didn't work. (Didn't
try in in Fedora.)

I have found that in some cases, with GTK apps, that either setting
LC_CTYPE to ja_JP or being sure to add GTK_IM_MODULE will make it work.
(However, if I do neither, then it won't.)  In general however (my most
frequent use is actually in terminal, with mutt) simply setting
XMODIFIERS (as my LC_CTYPE is set to en_US.UTF-8 by default) does the
trick.
