Ok, thanks for the tip using xkbcomp that way, I think I found the
problem, though it is still strange that xemacs behaves differently...
My home made "macintosh/fr" keymap has:
key <LALT> { [ ISO_Level3_Shift ] };
However, the rules includes both the "us" keymap and then the "fr"
keymap, and the "macintosh/us" ones contains:
key <LALT> { [ Alt_L, Meta_L ] };
(Which sounds bogus btw).
The problem is that when the "fr" stuff overrides the "us" stuff, the
second entry is not removed, and thus, the resulting map in the server
looks like (from server-0.xkb):
key <LALT> { [ ISO_Level3_Shift, Meta_L ] };
Which causes emacs to interpret that key as an additional Meta instead
of the other "Meta" key... Commenting out the stuff in the "us" keymap
fixes it.
Cheers,
Ben.
