I've used both of these with kinput2/canna and LANG=ja_JP.EUC (with linux 
locale files set to accept it).  I built the native 1.3.1 with the 
aforementioned Open Motif patch.

While the notepad and other demos work fine, with Kana/Kanji inline, Together 
<http://www.togethersoft.com>; crashes and burns.

In Together's editor, I first get into henkan mode.  An input window pops up 
and takes the focus.  In this popup window I type, for example, "tyd@".  The 
hiragana for "kanji" (yes, I touch type the kana keyboard) is displayed.  I 
press the space bar once and it is changed to the last chosen pair of Kanji 
for "kanji" that I had selected.  When I press the space bar a second time 
for more options, kinput2 crashes, closing the popup window, and leaving 
Together unable to take any further input.

Together must be kill'ed, kinput2 restarted, and only then can I restart 
Together and input in Japanese.  (Other open applications that use kinput2 
also show strange behavior, so all kterm's, etc. must be closed or they will 
not allow Japanese input under the new kinpu2 instance.)

Other Java applications that don't allow inline henkan input show the same 
behavior.  I'll try to remember some lighter weight ones than Together.  But 
the free version of Together does shows these symptoms.

Could the popup window test case be added to your array of tests?

Oh, and thank you for the report.
