I have this:

micha@drachen ~> setxkbmap -print
xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+us+inet(evdev)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"	};
};

I thought that in this case it would depend on the keyboard matrix, as
described here:

  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rollover_(key)#Ghosting

In xev, when I hold down left alt and AltGr and hit <, I see no event
generated.  Maybe you just have the better keyboard?
