I am starting to think I see some bugs here. One, rathter trivial bug, 
concerns the documentation. It says

    w32-recognize-altgr's value is t

    Recognize right-alt and left-ctrl as AltGr.
    When nil, the right-alt and left-ctrl key combination is
    interpreted normally.

    Defined in `C source code'.

I can not see that left-ctrl works as AltGr. That is good, I would not 
want it to, but the doc string should be changed I believe.

The other, more serious thing, is that different keyboards seems to 
behave differently. They are not supposed to do that I guess. Or am I 
wrong for some reason?

Another serious problem, probably related to this, is that some key 
combinations, like C-@ are very hard or even impossible to type.

Maybe all this just relates to w32? Anyway it would be very good if it 
was fixed before release!
