To handle the case where multiple keys are bound to the same symbol, XKeycodeToKeysym is used instead, searching through all possible (247) keycodes for each sym.

I don't understand the significance of this patch. Could you explain a bit more? What incorrect behavior does it fix? Could it be related to Issue #102? http://code.google.com/p/xmonad/issues/detail?id=102 Is it related to any other issues in the bug tracker? thanks, -Brent
