They don't. You are the first person ever to have such an issue with xkb that
I have seen who does a custom xkb layout instead of just xmodmap. I know of no
standard user file like ~/.Xmodmap for example for this - that is how rare this
is. There is a "Do not apply any keyboard settings ever" in e's keyboard
settings. this leaves you on your own to deal with xkb... :)
