Thanks for posting this, this also fixes an issue in xemacs where it produces the following verbose message on startup:


(1) (key-mapping/warning)
	The meanings of the modifier bits Mod1 through Mod5 are determined
	by the keysyms used to control those bits.  Mod1 does NOT always
	mean Meta, although some non-ICCCM-compliant programs assume that.

(2) (key-mapping/warning)
	Two distinct modifier keys (such as Meta and Hyper) cannot generate
	the same modifier bit, because Emacs won't be able to tell which
	modifier was actually held down when some other key is pressed.  It
	won't be able to tell Meta-x and Hyper-x apart, for example.  Change
	one of these keys to use some other modifier bit.  If you intend for
	these keys to have the same behavior, then change them to have the
	same keysym as well as the same modifier bit.

(3) (key-mapping/warning) XEmacs: Mod1 is being used for both Mode_switch and Alt.

Cheers,

Jamie
