Hard code freeze break request [gcalctool]



Hi,

A bug [1] has been reported against gcalctool 5.27.92 (and earlier)
showing that the power key '^' is unable to be entered in some
keyboard layouts (e.g. German, Spanish etc).  This is a feature that
has been broken since at least 2.22 and causes difficulty for
non-English layout users.

The attached patch fixes this problem by catching the keycode that is
being used in these layouts and also converting two consecutive '*' to
a '^'.  I am the maintainer of gcalctool and I approve this patch.
