Florent,
Sorry, but it doesn't work for me.
I dropped the patches into files and did a portupgrade -f, and restarted
X. No obvious difference. The keyboard LEDs are still dead, the ALT must
be pressed before the CTRL for CTRL-ALT-* operations and, it Gnome has
control of the keyboard (as opposed to X), the CTRL-CapsLock swap only
takes place after bringing up the config tool and re-applying the swap.
I'm sure these patches are supposed to fix something and very well
might, they don't fix the problems I am seeing.
