After updating the Emacs from CVS, I make Emacs as this:

% cd .../emacs
% make CFLAGS='-g -DDEBUG_XIC_FONTSET' (The first way)
% make bootstrap CFLAGS='-g -DDEBUG_XIC_FONTSET' (The second way)

Then I install it by sudo make install.

When I run Emacs as this:

% LANG=zh_CN address@hidden emacs --enable-font-backend

I meet the error message:

========================================
(emacs:8090): Gtk-WARNING **: Locale not supported by C library.
        Using the fallback 'C' locale.
XIC Fontset created: -*-*-medium-r-normal--15-*-*-*-*-*
========================================

So I run the command locale, and find this:

=====================
address@hidden:~$ locale
LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=zh_CN:zh:en_US:en
LC_CTYPE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="zh_CN.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=
=====================

Then, I run Emacs as this:

% LANG=zh_CN.UTF-8 address@hidden emacs --enable-font-backend

But this time, I meet the following error message:

==================================

As the result, the SCIM can't be activated still.

Furthmore, if I run Emacs as this:

% emacs --enable-font-backend

The error message is the same as the previous.

《送杨氏女》
作者：韦应物
永日方戚戚，出行复悠悠。
女子今有行，大江溯轻舟。
尔辈苦无恃，抚念益慈柔。
幼为长所育，两别泣不休。
对此结中肠，义往难复留。
自小阙内训，事姑贻我忧。
赖兹托令门，任恤庶无尤。
贫俭诚所尚，资从岂待周。
孝恭遵妇道，容止顺其猷。
别离在今晨，见尔当何秋。
居闲始自遣，临感忽难收。
归来视幼女，零泪缘缨流。
