"expect" works both ways, unfortunately - you should expect that European keyboards on the Mac will not work out-of-the-box for rather important characters like {}|~[]. Aquamacs fixes this (which might not be an incentive for you if you have a US keyboard). It also supports a number of other Mac-specific things - http://aquamacs.org. I understand that some Mac-specific adaptions are not everybody's cup of tea (not "pure" Emacs) but I find them very useful.
Warm regards,
Stefan
