The event_key_remap option is not part of upstream xf86-input-evdev. It
appears to be provided by a patch from:
http://www.thenautilus.net/SW/xf86-input-evdev/. As such, it is not
supported by Ubuntu.

Your options are:

* Propose the patch for inclusion in upstream xf86-input-evdev and/or Ubuntu
  - It's too late for Precise though, we're already past the feature freeze

* Apply the patch and build evdev manually for your machines

* Add the patch to the evdev package and upload it to a PPA
  - You will need to update every time a new release is made in Precise

My recommendation is to propose the patch for inclusion in upstream xf86
-input-evdev. Ubuntu would then receive the feature in future releases.

** Changed in: xserver-xorg-input-evdev (Ubuntu)
       Status: New => Invalid
