Mmm, no, variants are not hardcoded because of the Debian installer: the
Debian installer uses another (harcoded indeed) list of variants. AIUI
the variant list is generated during console-setup package build into
/var/lib/dpkg/info/keyboard-configuration.config

That should have worked indeed.

Just to make sure, note that this is different from what you specified
in your /etc/default/keyboard file:
> XKBLAYOUT="us,us"
> XKBVARIANT="intl,brz"
> BACKSPACE="guess"
> XKBMODEL="pc105"
> XKBOPTIONS="grp:alts_toggle"
You need to press the two alt keys together to switch between us(intl)
and us(brz).
