Configuring the old meta-win behavour confuses the german keyboard layout
(alt_r doesn't act as Mode_switch and Multi_key anymore).
The following patch adds a partial modifier_keys block to
/etc/X11/xkb/symbols/altwin which provides a german keyboard-layout
with the old meta_win behavour. I don't know if this is the best
way to solve the problem but it works for me.

Hi,
the altwin:left_meta_win option was added for such cases, so I am
closing this bug.
Thanks for your bugreport.
