25.0.50; Setting an input-method-function breaks prefix show on the echo area |

emacs -Q
M-x set-input-method ENTER spanish-prefix ENTER
Now let's suppose that we want to execute a command with a numeric
prefix (say 42). Let's press C-u and wait until it is displayed on the
echo area, then press `4' and wait, then press `2' and wait until it
is displayed too. The echo area shows:
C-u C-u 4 C-u 4 2
The problem is not limited to `set-input-method'. I discovered it with
key-chord-mode. I also have echo-keystrokes set to a low value, which
makes the problem more jarring.
