That should be fairly straight-forward to fix, but would need to be done
upstream. What's an easy way to test this for people who don't have SCIM
installed/setup?

I don't know how to test without SCIM or any other input method that use
"ctrl-space" trigger keys. I don't expect a fix. :(

That's not the question. How do we setup SCIM if it's not already installed?

Thanks. SCIM is in extras for fc4, and in core for fc5/6. so just run

yum install scim scim-pinyin im-chooser

Run "im-chooser" after finished. Choose default input method to be SCIM, then
SCIM will take effect in the next login.

I'll let upstream decide as to the best course of action:
