My complete configuration is:
XKBMODEL="pc105"
XKBLAYOUT="us,de"
XKBVARIANT="dvorak,nodeadkeys"
XKBOPTIONS="lv3:ralt_switch,compose:caps,grp_led:caps,grp:shifts_toggle"

But this bug also holds for setups with only a single XKBLAYOUT.
If I didn't miss something important, the new gdm *always* overrides *any* 
configuration made in /etc/default/console-setup.

It is actually a REGRESSION. After updating to 9.10 my keyboard was
broken - and the only working fix was switching to xdm, which simply
does not touch any keyboard setting at all.

Is there any reason for *forcing* the user to choose a layout from the list?
Giving the user the *option* to choose one is surely a good thing, but IMHO the 
default should be leaving the layout alone, as xdm does.

(BTW, the comment #1 above is a different bug. This bug is about the
configuration at /etc/default/console-setup being overridden, not about
the last layout choosen.)
