By the way, that?s very wrong, and always has been. The function
x-keysym-on-keyboard-p has been available for years, and JWZ?s complaining
about which modifiers are bound to which keysyms *requires* intimate
knowledge of the keyboard layout, worked out at each start.
On X11 we do fall back to the US key layout to solve the ?Russian C-x
problem? as Ben called it. But this is specific to 21.5.

Also, not totally true--for things like some X11 input methods, where they
supply nonsensical keysym numbers with single-character string keysym names,
those names are interpreted using keyboard-coding-system and bound to
self-insert-command.
