bug#12806: 24.3.50; Dead keys misbehavior when scroll-lock is enabled

To reproduce this bug, you'll need a keyboard with "dead keys" (like
my spanish keyboard, for example).

Recipe from "emacs -Q":

1. Enable scroll-lock (I can't do this while the Emacs frame has the
focus - I have to select another application before).
2. Try to write an accented "a" ("á") by typing the dead key "´" and
then the key "a".

I observe that:
* What gets inserted is a plain "a" (without the accent).
* The dead key has no effect over the "a" nor the following letters I
type, until I type an <SPC>: at that moment, an "´" is inserted
instead.

The above misbehavior persists even after exiting Emacs and starting
it again (as long as scroll-lock is "on").

This bug has annoyed me for months, but until now I didn't have a
reproducible recipe.
