Problem inputting Japanese using XIM

[Daiki Ueno <ueno@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello,

I'm wondering why zsh considers characters in the [0x80, 0xa0] range
as control characters?  Without the patch below, I couldn't input any
UTF-8 text via XIM.  For example, the series of characters 0xe3 0x81
0x82 corresponding the Japanese "a" are translated into the following
byte sequence in the typescript:

0xe3 0xe5(= ^) 0xc1(= 0x81 | '@') 0xe5 0xc2(= 0x82 | '@')
