Bug#364932: xorg: My keyboard no longer works after upgrading

[Antoine Sirinelli <debian-bugs@monte-stello.com>]

Package: xorg
Version: 1:7.0.14
Severity: important

Hello,

I have upgraded my sid system to xorg 7.0 and my keyboard stops to
work. Here are the symptoms :
* With a standard xorg.conf 
Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier      "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver          "kbd"
        Option          "CoreKeyboard"
        Option          "XkbRules"      "xorg"
        Option          "XkbModel"      "pc105"
        Option          "XkbLayout"     "fr"
EndSection

Each key of my keyboard (except the numerical pad) does a resolution
switch (as Ctrl-Alt-+ does). I can only press Ctrl-Alt-Bkscp to escape.

The Xorg log has these strange lines at the end :
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Configured Mouse" (type: MOUSE)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Generic Keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD)
expected keysym, got XF86_Switch_VT_1: line 8 of xfree86
expected keysym, got XF86_Switch_VT_2: line 11 of xfree86
[...] 14 lines similar
The XKEYBOARD keymap compiler (xkbcomp) reports:
> Warning:          Multiple interpretations of "NoSymbol+AnyOfOrNone(all)"
>                   Using last definition for duplicate fields
> Warning:          Multiple interpretations of "NoSymbol+AnyOfOrNone(all)"

[...] Same lines for a while

>                   Ignoring extra symbols
Errors from xkbcomp are not fatal to the X server
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
select returned 1
select returned 1
[...] a dozen of this "returned"

* If I change my xorg.conf by putting a fool name for XkbRules :
        Option          "XkbRules"      "foo"
in this case, the keyboard works except the shift, control, alt keys.
The Xorg log is only :

(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Configured Mouse" (type: MOUSE)
(II) XINPUT: Adding extended input device "Generic Keyboard" (type: KEYBOARD)
Couldn't load XKB keymap, falling back to pre-XKB keymap
(**) Option "Device" "/dev/input/mice"
select returned 1
select returned 1
[...] to be continued...

So at this time, Xorg is not usable on my desktop.
I have also tried other layout with no succes...
