@Kevin: It is difficult to decide where to report this bug. But I agree, we 
should do this.
@radostyle: glad to hear it works for you, too! Whether the problems with 
modmap files are related or not, we should treat this bug isolated, because the 
fixes might be different.

IMHO xset is a candidate to fix:
  1 xset r rate 300 36 , unplug/replug keyboard , xset q => delay,rate=660,25
  2 after replugging external keyboard becomes 660,25, but internal one stays 
at 300,36
  3 replugging while in a console (ctrl+alt+F1) doesn't change anything - 
unless I switch to X (ctrl+alt+F7)!
  4 xset r rate 300 39 , xset q => 300,40 (this is perhaps a hardware 
limitation)

But this all looks like xset stores the values in the keyboard hardware
only and sometimes chooses the wrong (external) one to read them from.
If that's right then only gconftool-2 stores these values reliably. Then
an udev-rule calling gconftool-2 would be a valid fix, if that's
possible at all. I found a solution for a similar issue here:

Anyway if you agree, I will report this issue to gnome.org AND
freedesktop.org with links to each other, so that well-informed people
can help to decide where to fix it.
