Recent versions of XFree86 (cvs) appear to have broken numeric keypad 'support'. Pressing any of these keys results in xev showing:
------
FocusOut event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x4600001,
mode NotifyGrab, detail NotifyAncestor
FocusOut event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x4600001,
mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyPointer
FocusIn event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x4600001,
mode NotifyUngrab, detail NotifyAncestor
KeymapNotify event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
keys: 2 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0
0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0 0

When a modifier such as ctrl is applied the result is:
------
KeyPress event, serial 19, synthetic NO, window 0x4600001,
root 0x5e, subw 0x0, time 1433998, (152,67), root:(220,1066),
state 0x10, keycode 37 (keysym 0xffe3, Control_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes: ""
KeyPress event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x4600001,

XLookupString gives 1 bytes: ""
KeyRelease event, serial 24, synthetic NO, window 0x4600001,
root 0x5e, subw 0x0, time 1434864, (152,67),
root:(220,1066), state 0x14, keycode 79 (keysym 0xffb7, KP_7), same_screen YES,

Any idea on what could be at fault here? The code used to work about a month
ago plus my settings have not changed.
