Sorry for my long silence. Since first reporting the problem, I've done
regular updates from the testing branch, of course. When I tried things
out again after reading Dimitry's suggestions today, this lead to some
interesting new developments:

When I put scrotwm in my .xsession file and run startx, it works.

Regularly, I'm using the Slim login manager for authentication and
session selection. Starting ScrotWM from there resulted in the
behaviour described earlier before.

Now today, using the Slim login, it still seemed the same way (no
keybindings working), but I could switch to a VT. This was not possible
a few weeks ago. Switching back to X (even without doing anything on
the VT, not even logging in), ScrotWM keybindings suddenly work as
intended!

So I assume part of the issue was simply caused by some temporary freak
bug in an underlying X package which has been fixed by now. What
remains is the weird behaviour when being run through a graphical login
manager.
