hmm, what trouble with XIM?
XIM is X Input Method to input some complex characters such as CJK.

We usually use kinput2 (which is packaged as kinput2-canna, kinput2-wnn
or kinput2-canna-wnn to communicate with canna, wnn respectively.) or
skkinput (different input scheme than canna,wnn) as XIM.

Did you read vim60h/runtime/doc/multibyte.txt ? (which in vim-6.0h-rt.tar.gz)
I think this is a good documentation.
