I saw something like this from the FreeBSD build of 4.3.0. Couldn't reset the server either (via ctl-alt-backspace).
Eventually found this:
Section "ServerFlags" Option "HandleSpecialKeys" "always" EndSection
Things 'worked' after that.
I mention the build bit because another machine that I did the 4.3.0 install from FreeBSD-4.x binaries didn't need the special keys config setting.
Didn't investigate, so am just sharing... If your ctl-alt-backspace works, then it's probably something different(?).

I'm having a similar problem, only I don't run GNOME panel and I have my caps lock key mapped to control. Whenever I have my actual control key mapped to control, I can switch VTs fine. But when I have the caps lock key mapped as control, neither alt+capslock+F1 nor alt+leftcontrol+F1 nor alt+rightcontrol+F1 works (right control is still control; I didn't change it)! Is this a bug, or am I just mapping them incorrectly? I use xmodmap to do it, but I understand there is also a way in the XF86Config-4 to specify such mappings.
