I submitted a corrected "il" (not "he"[1]) which works around this
problem.
I believe it has not got into 4.0.2 (although it is currently in the CVS).
http://www.iglu.org.il/faq/cache/86.html has the relevant information (the
correct map, a link to a message explaining why there are numbers, etc.)
[1] Someone decided that this keyboard is IsraeLy, and not necessarily
related to HEbrew. And heb was very keen to show that keymaps relate to
countries and not to languages (this is irrelevant for us and a bit less
true for us, bet never mind). thus the name "il" stuck. Therefore you
should 'setxkbmap il' and not 'setxkbmap $LANG'
