On a standard Solaris machine with CDE and a Japanese locale
installed, and running with LANG=ja, you should be able to use
Control-Space to interact with an X input method, and should receive
feedback in a status area below the minibuffer.  I've never seen XIM
on any non-Solaris machine.

If you can reproduce these crashes, running XEmacs under gdb and
tracking down the problem will help a lot.

Files byte-compiled with XEmacs 19.14 should have a good chance of
working with GNU Emacs and XEmacs 20.
