Hi.

Just wanted to add I'm experiencing a similar behaviour for quite some time 
now, in emacs-gtk in XFCE (Xorg), using a french desktop and Azerty keyboard, 
when typing some accentuated characters, like u + ^. Typically, on an azerty 
keyboard, there are 2 key strokes. First '^', then 'u'.

I noticed the following stdout/err messages :
../../../../modules/im/ximcp/imDefLkup.c,355: The key event is already 
fabricated.
../../../../modules/im/ximcp/imDefLkup.c,355: The key event is already 
fabricated.
../../../../modules/im/ximcp/imDefLkup.c,355: The key event is already 
fabricated.

I'm running testing:

Package: emacs-gtk
Version: 1:30.2+1-1
Severity: normal

Hope this helps,
