For right or for wrong kcm_keyboard uses iso639.xml which is ISO639 standard
(http://www.loc.gov/standards/iso639-2) and it tries both _2B and _2T codes.
Those three missing codes are only present in ISO 639-3
(http://www.sil.org/iso639-3/).

Also a two-letter language code "fr" is only present in one entry in
xkeyboard-config:
            <description>French (Mali, alternative)</description>
            <languageList>
              <iso639Id>fr</iso639Id>
            </languageList>

for other layouts that describe French three-letter "fra" is used. I would
think that Mali layout should also use "fra", as we could use ISO639_1 codes to
parse this one but it does not make much sense to have only one two-letter
language code for language that is represented by 3-letter code everywhere
else, so I would say it should be also fixed in xkeyboard-config.
