Ah! Oops.. =)

I think I have got a solution now:

1) Replace keyboard.c and keyboard.h with the old ones from 0.9.3 (don't
forget init_keyboard(dpy) in main.c ;)

2) Apply the attached patches to keyboard.h, keyboard.c and events.c

The thing is, there seems to be code in init_keyboard() that handles the
numlock problem, and scrollock and capslock too. So, I just save the
mask for those modifiers in variable ignore_mask and mask these out in
event.c. This works good here for me, please test this Stephen and see
if this fixes your numlock problem! (I think/hope it should).
