Under GNU/Linux, you can use xmodmap to rebind Control_L and Control_R
separately.  So, for instance, if you do

  ~ $ xmodmap -e "remove control = Control_R"
  ~ $ xmodmap -e "add mod4 = Control_R"

then pressing Control-a with the right control key will emit Super-a.
I'm sure there is some equivalent functionality on Mac OS X.
