The reporter sent a follow-up.  It seems this locale problem is related
with the GTK+ 2.2 and 2.4 incompatibility.  I don't really know what
happened, just forwarding the report to keep record.

Yes, I am using the GTK+ 2.4. After I recompile the source from deb-src
http://chinese.alioth.debian.org scim/
For now, it works fine under my Gnome 2.6.1 with zh_HK.Big5HKSCS or
zh_TW.Big5 locales (have not test other). Typing chinese in crxvt-big5
doesnt crash too. I will inform you if there are any other problem.

We used to think that if we know one, we know two, because one and one are
two.  We are finding that we must learn a great deal more about ``and''.
