So.  Does C-u C-x = claim to be composing for you?

Yes, in GNU Emacs 23:

        character: U (85, #o125, #x55)
preferred charset: ascii (ASCII (ISO646 IRV))
       code point: 0x55
           syntax: w    which means: word
         category: a:ASCII l:Latin r:Japanese roman
      buffer code: #x55
        file code: not encodable by coding system utf-8-unix
          display: composed to form "Ü" (see below)
     Unicode data:
             Name: LATIN CAPITAL LETTER U
         Category: Letter, Uppercase
  Combining class: Lu
    Bidi category: Lu
        Lowercase: u

Composed with the following character(s) "¨" by the rule:
        (?U (tc . bc) ?¨)
The component character(s) are displayed by these fonts (glyph codes):
U: -B&H-LucidaTypewriter-Medium-R-Normal-Sans-10-100-75-75-M-60- ISO8859-1 (#x55) ¨: -MUTT-ClearlyU-Medium-R-Normal--17-120-100-100-P-123-ISO10646-1 (#x308)

(Here you can see the reason for the large vertical composed characters: a much too big font.)

In GNU Emacs 22.0.50 they are not composed, they are <vowel><accent>.


Instead of composing a character I would first try to find the pre- composed form in the font(set) used. It surely would look much better.
