The new libx11 version seems to break xim's behavior and cannot be typed on XWayland/Gtk2 Apps

Description:

The new libx11 version seems to break xim's behavior and cannot be typed on XWayland/Gtk2.

We cannot enter any characters using Xim when setting XMODIFIERS.

Maybe we should revert the change.

Additional info:

• package version(s): 1.8.8
• config and/or log files:
• link to upstream bug report, if any: https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/xorg/lib/libx11/-/issues/205

Steps to reproduce:

1. set XMODIFIERS=@im=fcitx
2. Open a program that uses xim and try to type (Chromium on Xwayland/GTK2 Program(Gimp))
3. Cannot enter any characters and shortcuts

added priority3-normal severity4-low statusunconfirmed labels

assigned to @freswa, @andyrtr, and @toolybird

changed the description

added backport-request scoperegression statuswaiting-upstream labels and removed statusunconfirmed label

unassigned @freswa and @toolybird

mentioned in commit 64e5df5e

1.8.8-3 reverts MR236 until this has been fixed upstream.
