Thanks for that input, I'been carrying a full xmodmap around for years
on various Linux-systems.

However, I'm under the impression that X11 is nur running.  I compiled
the native Cocoa-version of Emacs23 (or is Carbon the newer one?  Sorry
to be fuzzy here).

Can I just launch X11 and then use xev to examine the keycodes?  Will
that in any way reflect the situation of the native programs?
