What happens if you run startx with "xmodmap > $foo; exec /usr/bin/xterm" in ~/.xinitrc? heh, I had the same idea, see my other mail, which I sent before I got yours. But your conclusion was better than mine. Indeed, if I make sure I press a key before Xmodmap runs, everything is fine. OTOH, if I am careful not to press a key, before it runs, it is broken. So it does not depend on the time passed, but rather whether a key as been pressed first. I hope that helps to track down the bug.
