I've been having a similar problem, with HP-UX 10.20, 11.00 and 11.11
all, and several different patch levels of each too, and a more varied
lineup of X server ends too (including several different versions of
Linux including several RedHat versions or derivatives and some others,
and some but not all *BSDs, but notably not the locally most common
kind of X server on Windows, nor any commercial UNIX that I could
test on.)

I didn't find a HP-UX binary for xev, so I built it from source ... and
it worked just fine, with all the AltGr characters too like ¤, but the
existing applications still didn't work. (No difference between
/usr/contrib/bin/X11/xterm and /usr/bin/X11/xterm in this regard.)
It was a reasonable suggestion though, too bad that it didn't help me
any.

I think it definitely is the "more obscure problem" here.

I think I did post here back when I was trying to make sense of it last
time. I still haven't made any progress. Anyone else?

Anyone who gets this problem on a keyboard layout other than the
Finnish/Swedish one that I use and mr. Keronen probably does too?
