Title:
  European keyboard PC-105 deadkey

Status in QEMU:
  Expired

Bug description:
  With a freshly compiled version of qemu 4.0.50 on Windows 10 (host)

  I am using 3 different Belgian keyboards and I have the same behaviour
  - 2 USB keyboards (Logitech and HP) and
  - the keyboard of my laptop (HP)

  3 characters on the same key cannot be used (the key seams to be dead):
  < (less than),
  > (greater than) used with the combination of LShift or RShift
  \ (backslash) used with the combination of AltGr

  Using grub command mode from an archlinux installation (5.1.4)
  The keyboard seams to be a mix of azerty and qwerty keyboard
  all letters are correctly mapped but all numbers and special
  characters are not

  Using sendkey in monitor
  "sendkey <" results in : \
  "sendkey shift-<" results in : |
  "sendkey ctrl-alt-<" results in : nothing

  REM: VirtualBox can handle this key and with the showkey command
       from the archlinux kbd package, it shows :
       keycode 86 press
       keycode 86 release
