Hmm, we might be doing different things, then. My alterations to layout
files (equivalent to what you're doing below) all work just fine. It's
switching between variants that doesn't work. By switching I mean having
something like:
setxkbmap -options grp:shifts_toggle
or
Section "InputClass"
...
Option "XkbOptions" "grp:shifts_toggle"
EndSection
So that you can shift between layouts on the fly. I'll try switching
my setup to using .xinitrc instead of the X11 conf dir, and see if that
makes any difference.
