OK, That works. Choose US as a system keyboard, start qemu with '-k 
en-us' (or without -k) and choose the language you want in the guest. 
However, it is rather awkward if you switch between qemu and other 
applications as you'll have to change the keyboard language every time.

So until we can take into account international mac keyboards, I'd say 
this is broken. I guess the solution might be to create specific 
keymaps.

In the meanwhile, I just ported my old patch (included) to the snapshot 
of a few days ago. It works with the french keyboard, and should work 
with any other international one (and even US). Use your usual language 
setting and start qemu without the '-k' argument.

Happy new year to all,
