The bug manifests itself rather differently for me, so I'll just
describe that.

1. In System->Preferences->Keyboard->Layouts, add a new layout so that there 
are two, for example first USA than SWE.
2. In System->Preferences->Keyboard->Layouts->Layout Options->Layout switching, 
check both "Both Alt keys..." and "Both shift keys..."
3. Now, switching with double alt works from "SWE" to "USA", but not from "USA" 
to "SWE". Double shift works both ways. 
4. Go back to System->Preferences->Keyboard->Layouts and switch places between 
USA and SWE, so that SWE is first.
5. Now, switching with double alt works from "USA" to "SWE", but not from "SWE" 
to "USA"!

Some additional points:
- Rebooting does not change anything - double alt still only works one-way. 
- Double ctrl seems to not work at all! (with "both alt keys...", "both shift 
keys...", "both ctrl keys..." all checked in "layout switching")
- Mouse clicking on USA/SWE works correctly all the time.

Don't know if /var/log/Xorg.0.log is useful, but I'm attaching that
