Strange. I never had to use any preload library under the current version
of libc6 for displaying Chinese. Did you use "crxvt -im xcin" to start
crxvt?

The problem is that somehow Gtk think that the locale to use is "zh_TW.big5"
(note the case of "b") instead of "zh_TW.Big5". The quick and dirty
solution is of course to link /etc/gtkrc.zh_TW.Big5 to gtkrc.zh_TW.big5 in
the same directory. But I still wonder why we need to do such stupid things
instead of fixing gtk.
Of course, if you do not have installed xfs-tt and some true-type fonts, or
if you want to use the fixed-width fonts in potato, the default 14 point
pixel width /etc/gtkrc.zh_TW.Big5 is plain stupid. Change it to 16 and you
will be fine.
