Hi Doug. This is probably due to some of the XKB changes. Would you mind filing a bug report at http://xquartz.macosforge.org ... I'll take a look at it before finally releasing 2.5.0.
Thanks,
Jeremy

This is the first pre-release of 2.5.0 that has been built for both Leopard and SnowLeopard. The Leopard version still installs to /usr/X11 and X11.app while the SL version installs to /opt/X11 and XQuartz.app to avoid the Software Update collisions that were so common in the Leopard days.
