I'm seeing a similar problem in the current Fedora 14.
I have the keyboard layouts "USA", "USA International (dead keys)" and "USA International (AltGr dead keys)". I only want the layout with AltGr dead keys and remove the other layouts. After logout/login, they reappear again and the one I want isn't the default.

I have found that you have to change the default keyboard layout either on login screen (after you clicked your username). My experience is that the system uses the login keyboard layout as default, so it is pushing it to the list of selected keyboard layouts and makes it default.

You're right, that fixes the problem. I guess this means the keyboard preferences fails to set the default gdm keyboard.

I'll close this as an upstream bug, and handle it there.
