Does it happen with "emacs -Q"?

How do you "write" ñ (do you use an input method?  Type it on your keyboard...?)?

What language environment do you use (if you don't set it explicitly, it
will be set automatically from the LANG environment variable)?

Do you use X emacs, emacs in a tty, etc.?  If tty emacs, which type of
terminal do you use?
