        "Process received strings via Unicode" is only for text from other
        applications via X selection and makes no sense for input text from
        XIM method.

        That's why EUC-JP(JISX0208) and GB2312 characters from XIM method
        aren't shown in Big5 mode.

        Then, an attached patch will help you.

        # If this patch is merged, 'copy_paste_via_ucs' option should be renamed
        # to something like 'receive_string_via_ucs' or so, I think.
