21.5.28 menubar assertion failure with uim

XEmacs 21.5.28 reportedly aborts with an assertion failure if
"uim"
I don't see how this can happen if XEmacs is built --without-xim.
Suggest to the OP to try that.
IMO, this is harmless because XIM is a horrible way to do input in
XEmacs (and maybe Emacs). The toolkit filters steal all keystrokes
and often fail to give them back. I looked briefly at trying to fix
this, but there seems to be no demand for XIM and any fix would be
pretty fiddly, demanding unending maintenance on average ;).
If people really want to use uim as an input method in XEmacs, I can
revisit the issue, but they'll need to post a RFE to the tracker
and/or xemacs-beta.
(http://code.google.com/p/uim/) is installed and one tries to click
the menu
bar or open a new frame. I don't have experience with uim nor an environment
to test this with available at the moment. More details at:
