Oh yeah, that's all fine and dandy, but X 4.3 introduced ANOTHER bug
regarding this -- now the minus and the underscore don't work any more!
Either /etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/hr, or the whole type3 section of
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/pc/latin lacks this line:
key <AB10> { [ minus, underscore, dead_belowdot, dead_abovedot ] };
I checked other type3 keyboards and noticed that:
* al and si define it themselves
* pl2 and yu (and hr before my change) don't define it
One could probably check in earlier X versions to see if it was erroneously
excluded from the type3 template...
Please fix this blunder ASAP.
