It's in xorg's bugzilla, but I don't remember the bug number.

Maybe it isn't because it has collateral effects depending on the language you 
use.
In my case, the right Alt should behave differently from the left one (AltGR, 
for symbols), and I loose this functionality if I use the workaround above. 
Instead, I use:
Option          "XkbOptions" "altwin:left_meta_win"
With this option I have AltGR on the right Alt key, but then only the left Win 
key works. Oh, well, I can live with that until the bug is fixed (if it will 
ever be)...
Maybe someone more knowledgeable with X configuration can come up with other 
solution that keeps both AltGR and the two Win keys working. If there is such 
workaround, I think it should be enabled by default while upstream don't fix 
the bug.
