Ok, there is no error message, you can check that everything works fine.
I already committed a patch so that options are not listed twice.

No, you can see from /etc/X11/xkb/rules/xorg:
! model         =       keycodes
  macintosh_old =       macintosh
  powerpcps2    =       powerpcps2
  pc98          =       xfree98(pc98)
  abnt2         =       xfree86(abnt2)
  jp106         =       xfree86(jp106)
  *             =       xfree86
Thus all models not listed explicitly (like pc105) get keycodes from
/etc/X11/xkb/keycodes/xfree86, this is normal.

I see nothing wrong, xlibs works just fine, maybe this is a GNOME
problem?
