The above only refers to GTK+-2.x apps. For apps using the X compose
tables, that's out of my hands. I think the development versions of
XFree86 have switched the sequence to give à in all locales, which
(IMO) isn't really right, but should be better for many users.

(/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/locale/en_US.UTF-8/Compose could be edited
for a short-term fix.)
