Yes, it's broken here too. I tested all the possible combinations.
openjdk 6 and 7, even oracle jdk.

I cannot type dead keys characters, like áíéóú used in spanish. My test
software is OmegaT: http://www.omegat.org

Isn't there a workaround for this problem?

Title:
  Unable to use dead keys with java and ibus

Status in “ibus” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed
Status in “openjdk-6” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Using latest Lucid packages, I am unable to use ^ key to generate ê
  french character in every Java programs (jEdit, Netbeans, etc.).

  Typing ^ + e give just the e character.
  Typing ^ + Space and nothing appears.

  I've tried with Sun JDK (6u18, 6u20, 7) and the bug is still present.

  I've tried to remove ibus and everything works again (I've just unset
  XMODIFIERS and GTK_IM_MODULE).

  I don't know if it's an ibus bug or openjdk one.
