Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-terminal

I use Control-backslash as a shortcut in midnight commander and some people use 
it to send a signal.
After upgrade do Karmic this stopped working on my computer because now ctrl+\ 
becomes <.
Since the < character is available on most keyboards, there is usually no need 
for extra way of entering it.
Control+backslash is what is needed.
I believe that this is a bug, because the keyboard layout that I use do not 
translate ctrl+\ to <. In other words, the need for this translation would be 
expressed as part of keyboard layout, not gnome-terminal-specific behavior.
