Forgive my ignorance about german keyboard usage, but is the tilde

Ok, it seems I can reproduce this by telling Windows I have a german
keyboard
(although starting the X server with '-xkblayout de' doesn't seem to
be
sufficient, which is somewhat mysterious) and it only affects the
xemacs window.
Great! Thanks for still bearing with me.
A workaround seems to be to do 'setxkbmap de' before starting xemacs.
This and other reported problems make me thing something not quite
right about
the way we are initializing XKB for an autodetected keyboard layout
(probably related to MPX changes in the X server), which needs more
investigation....
This behaviour should be fixed in xorg-server 1.5.3-5. Feedback welcomed.
