When start the example in the examples/text/ directory, I too cannot
call Chinput out. The example uses the GtkText widget which of course
is deprecated. Since gtk_init now calls gtk_set_locale by default, I
don't see anything special have to be done in order to make GtkText
XIM awared.

Chinput does support root-window style.

No problem with TextView+TextBuffer and Entry widget.
