I have the same problem.  On previous distributions I could use
xkeycaps to solve the problem on X, but this time xkeycaps would not
allow me to edit the keysyms !? I have tried it both as root and user.

Also on the console I can not get the compose key to work.  For some
time there was a bug regarding the compose key on woody, but it is
working now on woody - not in unstable.
