If I remember well, this change also went into XFree86 just before the
split. The  argument being : there are legitimate uses for ć, therefore 
'c to ç does not make sense, especially when you can compose ç using ,
and c (which seems a bit more logical).

I'm afraid I didn't pay a lot of attention, on my fr-latin9 french
layout ç and Ç are obtained without composition whatsoever
