One note:

  xprop -root -remove _XKB_RULES_NAMES
  $ setxkbmap `cat /etc/X11/Xkbmap `
  Couldn't interpret _XKB_RULES_NAMES property
  Use defaults: rules - 'xfree86' model - 'pc101' layout - 'us'

(/etc/X11/Xkbmap is one default place where the x init scripts look for
setxkbmap parameters, and this is where I put mine)
The above warnings are because that X property did not exist. setxkbmap
expected to find it there because the X server (XFree 4.x) sets it when it
sets the initial keymap.

In other words: no problem...
