Hello!
I had to reboot my Mac one week ago, and now *all* X client Emacsen
(22.1.50...23.0.60) claim:
<dead-tilde> is undefined
<dead-circumflex> is undefined
<dead-acute> is undefined
<dead-diaeresis> is undefined
<S-dead-grave> is undefined
<S-dead-circumflex> is undefined
Xev explains, on pressing ~ (which indeed is pressing the alt key
[Mode_switch] and n):

Xmodmap -pk shows (a bit edited):
18 0xfe52 (dead_circumflex) 0x00b0 (degree) 0x0afe
(doublelowquotemark) 0x0ad2 (leftdoublequotemark)
30 0x0036 (6) 0x0026 (ampersand) 0x005d (bracketright)
0xfe52 (dead_circumflex)
32 0xfe51 (dead_acute) 0xfe50 (dead_grave) 0x0027
(apostrophe) 0x10002da (U02DA)
40 0x0075 (u) 0x0055 (U) 0xfe57 (dead_diaeresis)
0x00c1 (Aacute)
53 0x006e (n) 0x004e (N) 0xfe53 (dead_tilde) 0x100203a
(U203A)
66 0xff7e (Mode_switch)
The C header file keysymdef.h contains inside the "ISO 9995 Function
and Modifier Keys, Byte 3 = 0xFE" group:
#ifdef XK_XKB_KEYS
#define XK_dead_grave 0xFE50
#define XK_dead_acute 0xFE51
#define XK_dead_circumflex 0xFE52
#define XK_dead_tilde 0xFE53
#define XK_dead_diaeresis 0xFE57
#endif
There does not seem to be any change that *I* could notice. Xterm
still sees the characters, and GNU Emacs without windows in xterm
sees them also. What could have caused such a change for the X11
clients? Probably something in ~/.emacs, when all show it ...

Hi, Peter:
It is the case for me too, but either it is a problem people don't
notice or they don't have, as I've searched the web and few people
seem to have the same problem. Hope they take it into account soon (I
think it has to be in emacs, as most other software works without any
problem). Also, I've tried the new scim packages and the problem
continues.
Any help you can bring would be much appreciated.
Regards,
diego.

It's probably more complicated since before middle of March all
versions of GNU Emacs, the X client, worked. Now all versions can't
understand the set of [`^~´] ... I am on Mac OS X 10.4.11 (Tiger).
The reported failure coincides a bit with installing the Security
Update 2008-001 package – but this one does not contain anything X11
related.
