input when running in a UTF-8 locale

[Trond Eivind Glomsrod]

This bug report will be sent to the Free Software Foundation,
not to your local site managers!
Please write in English, because the Emacs maintainers do not have
translators to read other languages for them.

Your bug report will be posted to the bug-gnu-emacs@gnu.org mailing list,
and to the gnu.emacs.bug news group.

In GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i686-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
 of 2002-08-06 on stripples.devel.redhat.com
configured using `configure  --host=i686-pc-linux-gnu --build=i686-pc-linux-gnu 
--target=i386-redhat-linux-gnu --program-prefix= --prefix=/usr 
--exec-prefix=/usr --bindir=/usr/bin --sbindir=/usr/sbin --sysconfdir=/etc

Important settings:

Please describe exactly what actions triggered the bug
and the precise symptoms of the bug:

When running emacs in a utf-8 locale (en_US.UTF-8) and using an international
keyboard layout or input method (setxkbmap us_intl  or just use the compose 
key),
entering a non 7-bit characters doesn't work - you'll get the raw UTF-8 
sequence 
inserted into the buffer as emacs doesn't recognize it.
