I tried reomving all references to Icelandic from the XF86Config file and 
switched to US layout with dead accents and even tried the Swiss German 
layout, but the dead keys didn't appear in konsole or the alt-F2 dialogue. 
I'm fairly confeident that it's not the Icelandic layout.

As for the xserver I'm running, it is:
logir@calvin:logir$ dpkg -l | grep xse
ii  xserver-common 3.3.6-11potato files and utilities common to all X servers
ii  xserver-svga   3.3.6-savage.1 X server for SVGA graphics cards

It could also simply be the debian packaging.

Could people try switching to f.ex. U.S. English with dead keys or some other 
layout that uses dead keys to see whether it is the xserver or the debian 
packages causing this?
