What version of libc does SuSE use? Let me take a wild guess and

Linux libc5 perhaps?
Yup. They changed to glibc in release 6.0.
Do you know how your X11 was compiled? The default XFree86 (and
presumably also RedHat) compile options are not locale-friendly. When
using GNU libc 2.0 I had to build X11 with -DX_LOCALE in order to get
XIM to work. I have not tried rebuilding X11 since `upgrading' to the
advertised more locale-friendly pre-2.1 since so many other things
have broken.
Can't find any information for this right now. I only have installed
the rpms, no special setup. Has anybody else done some fiddling with
the sources? XFree version is 3.3.2.3 according to Redhat's Web page.
Speaking of localization ...
Semi-off topic, but maybe not -- does XEmacs have to do anything
special due to the changeover to the new Euro currency in a few days?
One thing that comes into mind ... display the currency glyph.
