Summary: No keydown/char events gtk1 build (2.8.4)

Initial Comment:
Reproducible in text sample (simplest with event logging, i.e. ms_log* = true).

The 2.6.3-text-sample reports three events for e.g. F1:
keydown
char
keyup

The 2.8.4-text-sample only reports keyup.

When comparing gtk1 sources between 2.6.3 and 2.8.4 the following diff seems "strange" (i.e. to the "gtk-un-experienced-eye"). However reversing it gets us the missing events back):

2.8.4: src/gtk1/window.cpp:1064:
    if( wxTranslateGTKKeyEventToWx(event, win, gdk_event) == false )

2.6.3: src/gtk/window.cpp:1173:
    if( wxTranslateGTKKeyEventToWx(event, win, gdk_event) )

--with-libjpeg=builtin
--without-libpng
--without-libtiff
--with-zlib=builtin
--without-regex
--with-expat=builtin

This was due to applying an incorrect patch for CJK support, it's now
reverted (it would be, of course, better to have good support for IM and
normal key events but if we must choose it's better to have the latter...)
