At the moment, the readme file for scim asks users to set QT_IM_MODULE 
and GTK_IM_MODULE to "scim", which is incorrect and prevent scim from 
being activated. To make scim usable, they should be set to "xim".

Tested on OpenBSD 7.0 GENERIC.MP#223 @amd64

This problem is reported by f5b from gobsd.org
