Because of

    GTK_IM_MODULE=scim

GTK (on SuSE >= 9.0) and QT (on SuSE >= 9.2) support scim directly via
a plugin and don't use XIM.  This new input method support does not
depend on the language anymore, it works in all UTF-8 locales.

You can choose a different input method, e.g.

GTK_IM_MODULE=cedilla mozilla

> scim 0.99.2
> thunderbird 1.0
> firefox 1.0
> SuSE 9.0
