Since most keycodes on macintosh and on pc are equal, I thought it would
be worth changing the x-server or the linux-kernel (or whichever package
is responsible) to make macintosh keyboards emit the _right_ keycodes.

I think these are independent issues. As far as I understand this, you can
also tell rules/base to combine keycodes "macintosh" with symbols
"pc(pc105)+de(mac_nodeadkeys)" or some other mac variants to national
