I tried this patch, but CJK input still doesn't seem to work in
abiword-0.9.4.1. It worked in abiword-0.9.2, but abiword-0.9.4.1
doesn't even react to the sequence to switch on XIM anymore
(Shift-Space in case of the Japanese kinput2 XIM server). Am I doing
something wrong? This patch doesn't seem to be XIM related.
