Actually, the map is in X's own encoding. For characters with no exsting
name, the convention is not to invent new names, but rather use a
certain value based on their UCS (Unicode Charset) values.

X should be able to translate those characters to the encoding that you
use. You need to fix your environment and/or glibc-locale ettings, not
the xkb layout.
