Thanks Emilio!

libgtk-vnc-1.0-0 version 0.3.7-0ubuntu2.1  from the PPA tested with the
following setup

local machine (vinagre): Intrepid, Finnish keyboard
remote machine (vino): Hardy, Finnish keyboard

when using Emacs on the remote machine: All AltGr combinations work: @ £
$ { [ ] } \ € ~ |

However, when using Windows XP in Vmware Workstation in the remote machine, 
AltGr combinations don't work. AltGr
doesn't seem to be received, the "unaltered" characters are produced.

Of course there now 2 closed source products involved and it would be
easy to blame them. However, what I don't understand is: Vmware is
externally nothing else but an X Windows client, isn't it? This X
Windows client can handle the input from the physical Finnish keyboard
correctly. Shouldn't the input from vino be exactly the same? So the
inner layers of closed source software shouldn't be able to tell the
difference and should have no chance to screw anything up.

Any advice how to debug this is welcome.
