I was aware of symbols/is.  I've even sent in a fix for that key to
both RedHat and XFree86.org.    But thats not the problem here.
the dead_acute (áýúíóÁÉÝÚÍÓ) is working just fine in X and all X applications.
It doesnt matter which WM I use.  fvwm, windowmaker, gnome or kde.
Accented chars have been fine in X for a long time now.  Its just in wine
they are broken.   The only problem symbols/is caused is that one key
was not recognized during wine startup so wine rightfully decided to use
the Icelandic keymap because it was the closest to what was running at
the time.  Since my last mail, I've fixed symbols/is and keyboard.c so
the dead_acute key is correct and no complaining happens in wine now.
The problem with it was that shift-dead_key was wrong, and thats very
seldom used.

PS: thanks for taking the time to help me with this problem :)
