bug#60711: Compose fails to generate ≤ and ≥ (only those two! and only in emacs!)

Like any other character, with a KeyPress event, but through 
XmbLookupString (its first occurrence in handle_one_xevent).  AFAIU what 
happens is this:

Compose -> KeyPress event, keysym Multi_key, with XFilterEvent True
_       -> KeyPress event, keysym underscore, with XFilterEvent True
>       -> KeyPress event, keysym greater, with XFilterEvent True

after which a KeyPress event, keysym U2265, with XFilterEvent False, and 
for which XmbLookupString returns "≥", is delivered to the client.

What am I missing?
