Exists in Gnome 2.8.3 (used in Debian Sarge) and according to your
testimony, also in Debian SID (unstable) but not in the version used in
Debian Etch (Testing) [the computer where it is installed is turned off
at the moment, so I did not verify sub-version].

My problem was with Debian Testing, not Debian Unstable.

I routinely use the Israeli/sil1452 keyboard.

The problem in my case was fixed by messing around with Xorg
configuration (rather than via Gnome keyboard configuration tool).
Hopefully, sometime in the future, your version 2.12.3-2 will reach
Debian Testing and then I'll be able to configure using Gnome rather
than directly the X-server.
