I can't believe it is normal behavior. Or there is documention problem.

The default X11/etc/X11/xkb/rules/xfree86.lst says
  altwin:meta_win   Meta is mapped to the Win-keys.

I was relying on this information. (The same info is present in KDE-keyboard 
layout setting). It does not indicate that this option changes the right alt 
behavior. Also I want to point out that option behavior were (IMHO) correct 
in previous versions of xlibs (version 4.3.0-dfsg.1-7). 

  $ setxkbmap -option -option altwin:left_meta_win
 This is not a workaround, but the right settings for your needs if you
 do not want your Right Alt key to be mapped to Meta.
 I am closing this bug, thanks for your report.

For me this is still a workaround. I can't use right win key as a meta key. 
But at least I have meta key and altgr at my disposal.


I'm sorry if I am referring the wrong documention in this matter. It is hard 
to find information what those options really do.

I did not carefully read your bugreport, sorry.
It is now reopened.
