you are filtering everything you type into the entry through a perl 
callback, the handler for the Entry's "insert-text" signal.

if you remove this callback, can you type correctly?

if so, then the problem lies in encodings and utf8 issues with the 
bindings which should be solvable, but which i do not know how to 
solve.  (anyone?)

if the problem persists in the absence of the text-filtering perl 
callback, then the problem is probably not with the bindings.
