Just tried it. Indeed the auto-repeat issue is gone, and the right
control key works as expected again.

But now Alt-Gr stopped working on my German keyboard layout for gnome
applications. I can not enter the at sign, or any of the other
characters reachable by the level 3 shift.

Actually, xev, and the prompt included in xmonad show the key correctly:

KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x92, subw 0x0, time 472515, (488,265), root:(522,265),
    state 0x0, keycode 108 (keysym 0xfe03, ISO_Level3_Shift), same_screen YES,
    XKeysymToKeycode returns keycode: 92
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyPress event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x92, subw 0x0, time 472531, (488,265), root:(522,265),
    state 0x88, keycode 24 (keysym 0x40, at), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (40) "@"
    XmbLookupString gives 1 bytes: (40) "@"
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x92, subw 0x0, time 472635, (488,265), root:(522,265),
    state 0x88, keycode 24 (keysym 0x40, at), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 1 bytes: (40) "@"
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 29, synthetic NO, window 0x3200001,
    root 0x92, subw 0x0, time 472657, (488,265), root:(522,265),
    state 0x88, keycode 108 (keysym 0xfe03, ISO_Level3_Shift), same_screen YES,
    XKeysymToKeycode returns keycode: 92
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes: 
    XFilterEvent returns: False

But gtk applications (gnome-terminal, evolution, screen-message) do not
show any reaction, and xterm gives wrong characters for AltGr keys.

Again, I can fix it by running
$ setxkbmap ; xmodmap ~/.Xmodmap

xev output is not changed, though.

Greetings,
Joachim
