Bug#443473: modifying [Caps Lock] via xmodmap is broken

Yes, this problem has been reported several times already, and it's
probably unrelated to your xmodmap problem anyway.
Could you compare the output of xmodmap -pke or so in Xorg 7.2 and 7.3?
If the keymaps are identical, the bug would likely be in the Xserver. If
they are different, the bug would likely be in xmodmap. I would vote for
the former since there are several input-device-related bugs already
known in Xserver 1.4...

We have another bug report (#443044) about xmodmap not working at all,
we don't know what's going wrong yet. There's also
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=12500 which looks strange
to me (are you running a 2.6.23-rcX kernel?).
