I recently upgraded several Debian packages---xfree86 with no
-DX_LOCALE, wcsmbs patch from Debian-JP and Korean locale for wcsmbs.
But after the upgrade, all my GTK+ programs didn't properly work with
multibyte language. GTK+ library has been compiled from the source.
I attached the fix. The patch is a part of the GTK+ XIM improvement,
<http://arch.comp.kyutech.ac.jp/~matsu/my_products/gtk/xim-1998.09.16.patch>
The problem was, the result of mblen ("\xc0", MB_CUR_MAX) was -1 in
"C" locale. But I believe it should be 1. Is it glibc's (or
wcsmbs's) bug?
Anyway, this patch fixes the problem. If noone complains, I'll commit
this.
