start up xvile.  Is there any way I can tune things to get rid of it?

That's coming from the x11.c file in this chunk at line 6849:

    if (found == 0) {
        fprintf(stderr, "input method doesn't support my preedit type\n");
        XCloseIM(xim);
        return;
    }

Just removing the fprintf shouldn't break anything.  Without recompiling,
you could simply redirect stderr to /dev/null, e.g., with a shell script.

I agree the message shouldn't be so obnoxious - whenever my attention's been there in the past it was just to check if it was correct...
