Rather odd - alt-gr should be mapped to the right shift on a US keyboard I believe, so holding down alt-gr and hitting 4 should be a reliable event.

May be a vim problem. With a UK keyboard btw compose is shift-altgr so shift-altgr (remove fingers) e = produces € (and there are lots of other useful ones for accented symbols for © etc..)
