CVS as well as 0.7.0.

Interesting.
Looks like the bug affects X11 and W32 as well, if you are not using a
US keymap.
I don't think so. The non-keymap code that was used before my patch
(sdl_keyevent_to_keycode()) uses event.key.keysym.scancode, which is
platform-dependent, but refers to the location of the keys, not their
value under the current keyboard mapping (apparently X keycodes on X11,
PC keycodes on Windows, ADB keycodes on Mac OS). The with-keymap code
(sdl_keyevent_to_keycode_generic()) on the other hand uses
event.key.keysym.sym (one of the SDLK_xxx constants), which is affected
by the OS's keyboard mapping. (Although IMHO it shouldn't be, but when
that topic was brought up on the SDL mailing list, the answer IIRC was
that that would be too difficult to fix on all platforms supported by
SDL. I'm not convinced by that, but I didn't investigate any further at
that time.)
It's just that in sdl_keyevent_to_keycode, the X11 and win32 cases are
handled, but not the Mac OS case.
