As an innocent bystander I was at first puzzled at your choice of 'C-x 8
< <' and 'C-x 8 > >' for "‹" and "›", respectively; but then I found
that 'C-x 8 <' and 'C-x 8 >' in the global map already produce "«" and
"»", presumably because the latter are the real quotation marks in
French, while "single guillemets" are less frequently used.  So your
choice makes sense after all.
