No. I tried some .Xmodmap hacking (in the sense of trying every possible
stupid thing I saw in Google or in the man pages), but to no effect
(well, no POSITIVE effect !).

xmodmap: up to 3 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):
shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock Caps_Lock (0x42)
control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x6d)
mod1 Alt_L (0x40), Alt_L (0x7d), Meta_L (0x9c)
mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4 Super_L (0x7f), Hyper_L (0x80)
mod5 Mode_switch (0x5d), ISO_Level3_Shift (0x71),
ISO_Level3_Shift (0x7c)
No mod3, did you see ?

Yes, sorry. By "dead key", I mean a key not supposed to trigger an
action, but a modifier for otheer keys. And this is the behaviour I lost
in Emacs (and emacs alone, for what I saw) : Alt-Gr 9 for example should
send "^" to emacs, but emacs stops after Alt-Gr blinking. So I get the ^
I want, except that when I want to insert it in the macro -9",
it understands "C-c AltGr" "^", blinks on "C-c AltGr" because no macro is
associated to it, and then inserts "^" (proving that Alt-Gr indeed
modified the 9 key to ^).
I hope this is more clear.

Second option, of course. My mistake.

Thanks for your help.
