I missed the keymap you refer to in the following email because I was on 
vacation:

It looks promising.  However, I am not an expert on this sort of thing 
and I cannot be the one that approves it as a fix that can be used by 
anyone using the current us_intl keymap.  Someone else will have to 
bless it... once a new xc/ tree is setup on freedesktop.org we could 
commit the keymap if it is valid for all platforms.  Please keep track 
of this and bug me in a few weeks if no one has claimed that they will 
get this into the tree.
