Yes, Gulam appears to remap the keyboard into a US keyboard.  (I presume this
is an attempt to 're-standardize' it in case something run previously has
munged it, but it's annoying.  I seem to recall that uemacs 3.7i did/does this
as well -- certainly one of the many uemacs'es around does.)

Please, folks, when you write keyboard-driven thingies, leave the flipping
keyboard alone -- if it's funny, it's probably funny because I like it that
way -- or at least provide an easy hook to allow me to set it up the way I like
it.  While I did have some 30 years of US keyboard use, I've been using UK ones
since I came here, and I **like** for all the keyboards I use to have the
special chars in the same place.
