This bug was fixed in the package procps - 1:3.3.3-2ubuntu3
---------------
procps (1:3.3.3-2ubuntu3) quantal; urgency=low
* debian/sysctl.d/10-magic-sysrq.conf: adjust to 176 by default, retaining
support for the critical sync, remount, reboot functions. SysRq+E and
SysRq+I are still disabled, which unfortunately means SysRq by default
cannot be used to kill a broken X server; but the only way to enable
these would be to re-enable SysRq+F, which is one of the options that's
problematic security-wise. LP: #1025467
