+x11drv,+key,+keyboard,+event trace - game start + pressing the 5 problematic
keys

This trace is done with my deadkeys patch; I'm at the moment recompiling Wine
to get it to the latest git version without any external patches to be able to
generate a purer trace if needed, but I don't think it will be needed.

In this trace I simply started the game and pressed the 5 problematic keys as
seen in my previous post.

Not directly related to the trace, but from running xev I've saw a pattern to
the problematic keys under the DE layout: every key for which XmbLookupString /
XLookupString returns more than 1 byte are not working to bind actions in World
of Warcraft. No other keys trigger this bug.

For some reason the call to XLookupString inside X11DRV_MapVirtualKeyEx don't
seem to be giving the expected result when it should return more than 1 byte,
although it's using the correct keycode (i.e., the same reported in the
original event). It might be related to the fact that it is storing the
character information in a char[2], and then this char array is being returned
by X11DRV_MapVirtualKeyEx as an UINT.
