I can reproduce the problem when booted from the F10 Live CD. I'm not saying that this eliminates the possibility that the problem is related to X settings, but it does eliminate *my* particular X settings.

Steps:
- boot from Live CD
- login
- open terminal window
- $ su -
- # yum install emacs
- # ^D
- $ emacs

Try e.g., right-control. Nothing happens.

System -> Preferences > Hardware > Keyboard > Layouts
Layout Options > Compose Key Position
Select Right Control as Compose
Close

Back to Emacs. Press right-control. Emacs complains "<multi_key> is not defined".

Other applications (e.g. the terminal window) treat control-right now as a compose key.
