1. Start a fresh emacs by 'emacs -Q' in terminal
2. Enable chinese-py input method of quail by eval'ing below snippet:

    (setq default-input-method "chinese-py")
    (toggle-input-method)

3. Start defining keyboard macro by hitting 'F3'
4. Input Chinese '你好' by typing 'ni1hao1' in the '*scratch*' buffer,
    and end keyboard macro by 'F4'
5. Replay keyboard macro by 'F4', it will get '嗯你h好', which is *not*
    exactly the same.
6. 'M-x kmacro-edit-macro' shows that some characters('n' and 'h') are
repeated:
    ;; Keyboard Macro Editor.  Press C-c C-c to finish; press C-x k RET to
cancel.
    ;; Original keys: nni1hhao1

    Command: last-kbd-macro
    Key: none

    Macro:

    nni1hhao1 ;; self-insert-command * 9

7. My guess is that it's due to put back the key into
'unread-command-events' in the function 'quail-start-translation', i.e.:
    (if key
        (setq unread-command-events (cons key unread-command-events)))

Thanks, this is bug #32108, which is already fixed on the master
branch of the Emacs Git repository.
