Thanks for reporting this.

I don't know if this layout identifier is only used by Parallels, or if 
you could also get it reported when using the BootCamp drivers with Windows?

I've added some code which should hopefully handle Apple keyboards for 
all known layouts.

I'm not 100% sure I've got this right, and I don't have any real way to 
test this, so I've built a snapshot [1], and I'd be obliged if you could 
test this.

I'm also not sure if using the standard pc105 layout is correct. 
xkeyboard-config has specialized macintosh and macbook79 layouts, which 
seem to differ in the location of the 3rd-level shift key (what would be 
AltGr on a PC keyboard), so I'm not sure which of those to use.  Can you 
verify that is also working as expected?
