I am unable to find such a line in any file in /usr/share/X11/xkb/symbols.

I've checked all current versions of xkb-data (oldstable, 
stable=testing=unstable, experimental).  Are you getting still this 
error?  If not, then perhaps it was caused by an error in a xkb file 
that has been fixed.  Otherwise, could you identify the file that causes 
this error and send it for inspection?
One way to search for this file is to use

rgrep -r 'modifiers *= *Shift.*clearLocks' /usr/share/X11/xkb

Please send also the contents of /etc/default/keyboard
