I took their patch and removed the old patches and it works perfect!
All of the sun-special keys work (but I think they are not used anyway).

My keyboard-config is

Section "InputDevice"
   Identifier  "Keyboard0"
   Option      "Protocol"   "standard"
   Driver      "kbd"
   Option      "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
   Option      "XkbRules"   "sun"
   Option      "XkbModel"   "type5"
   Option "XkbLayout"  "de"
EndSection

But I have one problem with my keyboard: The lights for Caps Lock, Num
Lock and Scroll Lock don't work with X... don't know why.

And here is the diff from xorg (you have to edit it to get it to work -
I'm a noob and can't do it atm):
