This is probably caused by the switch to evdev for input.  You might
have better luck setting the options via hal, with something like this
in /etc/hal/fdi/policy/11-keymap.fdi:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<deviceinfo version="0.2">
    <device>
        <match key="info.capabilities" contains="input.keys">
            <merge key="input.xkb.options" type="string">ctrl:swapcaps</merge>
        </match>
    </device>
</deviceinfo>

And then you should be able to remove the InputDevice section in
xorg.conf (or remove xorg.conf entirely).
