(3) Observe |code|

Similar issue for the key between ShiftLeft and KeyZ.
Keyboard I'm using: http://www.apple.com/ca/shop/product/MB110C/B/apple-keyboard-with-numeric-keypad-french

Seems that Apple wired their keyboard with the keys swapped.

WontFix since we cannot detect if it's an Apple's keyboard on Linux or Windows. Also assume that it's rare to use an Apple's keyboard on PC.
