I am accustomed to using M-. to yank in the last argument from the previous command in bash. This still does that from the console, but in xorg-x11 (6.7.0-r1), using xterm (the only terminal I have installed), this combination (Alt_L-., or M-., or whatever) instead produces: ®, the registered trademark symbol (at least in iso8859-1). Xkb is obscure, maybe this is somewhere in a symbol file? us? Can't find it...(in xorg.conf just have pc104 and us set, as model and layout respectively). This did not happen with xfree, but I'm not looking forward to some huge diff with a friend running xfree, or anything like that
