I met some Apple X11 engineers yesterday at the Apple Campus Beer  
Bash to whom I showed the problem. They said since it works correctly  
in xterm, the problem may be how OOo (and gnome) handles the key  
events. Which is what I thought anyway since people had reported this  
issue for XFree86 on MacOSX before.
Anyway, with beer inside and the second on the way, my fingers did  
not hit the keys with the usual accuracy and I just stumbled across  
that you can get to some of the expected symbols hitting Option+Ctrl 
+key. It apparently does not work for everything (e.g. Euro sign on  
German keyboard), but this is better than nothing.

Best regards,
Florian
