Bug Description

I am running Ubuntu 12.04 alpha-2 or beta-1, and have selected the Maori keyboard layout, which uses the AltGr key to type vowels with macrons, like āēīōū. If I am using the terminal program (xfce4-terminal) these characters are not entered properly (see bug #929054). There is another problem which arises from this: if I type

ā

and Enter

I get the error:

If I try this with xterm, I just get a normal command-not-found error (and the input is correct).

( The � is the incorrect input cited in @929054)
