If you don't want to use Allegro's keyboard handler, don't install it. Or
you could always rewrite the GUI routines :-)

I think the latest WIP of Allegro has improved foreign keyboard support, but
since I use only the English setting I can't really say how much it is
improved. If you are worried about a country not having a correct mapping
table, include a copy of keyconf.exe with your program so that people can
create their own.
