Comment(by matchmaker):

 This definitely looks like some kind of race condition to
 me.[http://http://www.ugghosting.com Ugg] I attached to the rainbow
 process with strace (used the -f option to follow forks), and noticed that
 under normal circumstances, the iso8859-1 Compose file was getting loaded.
 This indicates that X is getting the locale as 'C', and not as
 am_ET.UTF-8. Maybe the time overhead with $RAINBOW_STRACE_LOG = '1' is
 causing the normal loser to win the race ?
