do you have alternative layouts in your xkb / xorg config?
does alt work for other tasks, like Alt-Tab? (it does for me if I remove the
different keyboard layouts).
FWIW, i just remembered than when I just upgraded to xorg7.2, i had to
reconfigure xfce to allow me to drag windows using the alt key... it used to be
called 'alt' before, now it works when I set the option in xfce to Mod4
(which is interesting, because xbindkeys has always seen my left alt as mod4,
even before 7.2)
i'll have a play with this when i can...
