Thanks.

The problem starts here:
trace:keyboard:X11DRV_InitKeyboard keycode 187 => vkey 0000

then once there is a KeyPress even:

trace:event:call_event_handler 47 KeyPress for hwnd/window 0x10052/5200001
trace:key:X11DRV_KeyEvent type 2, window 5200001, state 0x0011, keycode 187
trace:keyboard:X11DRV_KeyEvent XmbLookupString needs 1 byte(s)
trace:key:X11DRV_KeyEvent nbyte = 1, status 4
trace:key:X11DRV_KeyEvent KeyPress : keysym=28 (parenleft), # of chars=1 / "("
trace:key:EVENT_event_to_vkey e->keycode = 187
trace:key:X11DRV_KeyEvent keycode 187 converted to vkey 0xFC

keycode 187 actually gets converted to vkey 0, and the code assumes that's
the special case and converts it to VK_NONAME (0xFC), which is an internal
trick to handle dead keys.

Keyboard detection code is to blame here.
