Proposed fix for this issue

x11/libxkbcommon currently doesn't find the key composition information in

to initialize in libxkbcommon, because it tries to use its default path looking
in "/usr/local/share/X11/locale/".

Adding the --with-x-locale-root=${PREFIX}/lib/X11/locale option to
CONFIGURE_ARGS fixes this problem for me (i.e. key composition works
