I have the same problem, so it would seem that this is a problem
specific to bash, or to readline. Hmm, it's readline, the compose key 
fails in other programs that use readline as well, producing just a beep
no matter what character I try to input (I tried ¡, ä, á, ß, etc). It
works fine in zsh, vim, xchat (gtk), etc. This is in an xterm.
