Does this mean that this bug won't be fixed in stable (Etch)?

No, I included all of the changes between the layout
file shipped with Debian and the latest one in the CVS
http://webcvs.freedesktop.org/xkeyboard-config/xkeyboard-config/symbols/us?view=co
so that the latest version of the file would be in Debian.
However, the essential lines are the ones with "<BKSL>"
and "<CAPS>" in them. I am attaching a more to-the-point
version of the patch.
