I tried doing the "add" command with xmodmap (see below), and that didn't work.
There are two comments on this:
1)
the default xmodmap is identical between x86 and amd64 machines, yet
the amd64 is not working. Doing xmodmap "add" does not help -- I even
tried restarting emacs
2) note that Ctrl_R + Super_L + ' works fine, but Ctrl_L + Super_L + ' does not. It's the left Ctrl with left Super that's not functioning.
It's baffling. Any other thoughts?

Any clue where I need to tweak to make this work?

With xmodmap you can make your right and left modifier variants be "on the same level." Xmodmap can use kind of a "script," a file ~/.xmodmaprc that adjusts the details, which is invoked from ~/.xinitrc before the first X client is launched.
GNU Emacs relies on X11.
