Public bug reported:

The German keyboard layout (mac nodeadkeys) is wrong when using an apple
alumimium keyboard is wrong.

The biggest disadvantage is that the "<" and ">" keys are not accessible
by default. A great setback for every developer who has to use these
keys regularly!

Here is the modification of the "mac nodeadkeys" mapping:

// original mappings
// key <TLDE>       { [ asciicircum,    degree,     notsign       ] };
// key <BKSL>       { [ numbersign, apostrophe,       grave       ] };
// new mappings to get greater and lesser characters
key <TLDE>  { [ less, greater, sterling       ]     };
key <LSGT>  { [ asciicircum,    degree,     notsign       ] };

As many users complain about wrong key mapping on these keyboards I
suggest that a new keyboard class "Apple Aluminium" with proper mappings
for all languages or something similar is introduced.
