Most likely XIM is completely uninvolved here. Do you have a "á" key on 
your keyboard and this works correctly with other X applications? The 
first thing you could try is to deactivate XIM in the  backend by 
specifying "--disable-xim" to configure. If things work after that, than 
it was the XIM code in GNUstep after all.

If the keys are still not recognized, you will have to debug 
process_key_event() in XGServerEvent.m. You can get a bit more verbose 
output from GNUstep by setting "--GNU-Debug=NSKeyEvent" on the command 
line of Ink. (BTW: Thank you for using Ink!)

Hope this helps
