Thanks for the info. It is more or less what I suspected. I chose
Debian because they seem to be the only ones who have GNUstep packages
in their standard distribution, but it seems they don't upgrade them
very often. I checked the testing and unstable releases for the
versions to come; There are a few improvements indeed, but they're
still not at the latest versions. And besides, I'd prefer using a
stable distribution.
What are my options here? It seems the file organisation for GNUstep
in Debian is quite different from the standard one, so getting the
latest sources and compiling them myself is quite likely to mess
things up completely. Is there an unofficial repository somewhere that
would allow to upgrade to more recent versions without breaking
everything?
Thanks!

Is there any workaround for this? Or a trick to make it work

5.0 (lenny), which are:
WindowMaker 0.92.0
GNUstep make 2.0.6
GNUstep base 1.16.1
GNUstep GUI 0.14.0
GNUstep back 0.14
These versions were released more than two years ago and there have
been two major upgrades since then, which contain a substantial
amount of bug fixes. In particular, the issue with the modifier keys
you observed was fixed shortly before the release of GNUstep back
version 0.16, so my recommendation is simply to upgrade to a more
recent GNUstep version.
