I can only reproduce it if I remove my XKeysymDB file.
Try,
export XKEYSYMDB=/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/XKeysymDB
BTW you really should be playing with 4.0.2

I did it … the result was that all gtk+ apps are
now working w/o complains.
I have re-installed in the meantime 3.3.5 and the
keyboard problems are solved … so the backspace
key works now correct with my ‘beloved NEdit’ 
(no visible … )

If there are no changes neccessary in the
‘XFree86/os-support’ section … I will give it a
try. ( already downloaded … )
Many thanks so far,
Armin
