(I am answering to this message; it's the latest I could find regarding
this problem. If there are already better solutions for this I'm all
ears.)

I have just upgraded to 7.3 as of Oct 13, 2007 on 6.2-STABLE (built Jun
14, 2007). My keyboard is a 105-key PC/AT keyboard.

With the two patches referenced above, xkeyboard now "works for me"
insofar as the functionality of NumLock/CapsLock is now present. The
status LEDs however do not reflect the "status change" of the respective
modifier key.
