The problem is in input.c:keysym_to_keycode_mod().

It uses the X call XKeysymToKeycode, which takes a keysym and returns
a keycode. The problem is multiple keycodes can map to the same
keysym, which is what you've done. I don't know how to request all
keycodes that a keysym is bound to. If that can be figured out, when
the function could return a list of keycodes.

I'll look into it.
