409 Now you can start your terminal with "LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8" and 410 Now you can start your terminal with "LC_CTYPE=ja_JP.UTF-8" and
410 still use your input method. Please note, however, that you will not 411 still use your input method. Please note, however, that you will not
411 be able to input characters outside "EUC-JP" in a normal way then, 412 be able to input characters outside "EUC-JP" in a normal way then,
412 as your input method limits you. 413 as your input method limits you.

415 Rxvt-unicode crashes when the X Input Method changes or exits.
416 Unfortunately, this is unavoidable, as the XIM protocol is racy by
417 design. Applications can avoid some crashes at the expense of memory
418 leaks, and Input Methods can avoid some crashes by careful ordering
419 at exit time. kinput2 (and derived input methods) generally
420 succeeds, while SCIM (or similar input methods) fails. In the end,
421 however, crashes cannot be completely avoided even if both sides
422 cooperate.
423
424 So the only workaround is not to kill your Input Method Servers.
