The Finnish keyboard map change in 0.9+cvs.20070428-1 breaks the
dead_macron patch from 0.8-17, among other things. It appears that 
several other deadkeys are also gone.

It should also be noted that the Kotoisuus keymap should never become 
the default, as it *breaks* interoperability with previous keymaps and
was heavily criticized by the community when it was published.

I tend to be convinced by your arguments. Thus closing the bug report.
Of course, Marc-Éric is free to reopen it if he has more arguments or
native users supports.
