Generally speaking, when you're going through the enormous wnpp bug list
and trying to help out by tidying it up, life's too short to work out
the length of time for which a package has been ITAed (it&#x
broken and the bar is
solid, although it seems to generate pipe anyway with this keymap) and
the Euro symbol on AltGr-4.
