keyboard is *DEAD* after upgrade to GNOME 2.9.4



hi,

Something realy bad happen to me today :>
After upgrade to all latest GNOME 2.9.4 paskages run gnome-session causes 
keyboard is *completly dead*.

It *must be* something GNOME 2.9.4 related because if I'm:

1) run xinit: keyboard is correct,

2) inside unframed xterm window runing "metacity &" -> keyboard sill is
    functional,

3) run additionaly "gnome-pannel &" -> keyboard sill is functional,

4) killing X sesion and again run "xinit" and inside unframed xterm window
    run "gnome-session &" causes keyboard is dead,

5) remote login -> "killall X"
    -> run again xinit and inside "xev &; gnome-session &"
    -> I can make focus on xev window using mouse-> try tapping any key
    shows *no keyboard releated X evens* is passed to xev .. 8-O

    Preessing numlock, caplock, scroll-lock even do not changes keyboard
    LEDs state .. keyboard is completly unavalaible.

Something more about this case ..

Aftter I run "metacity &; gnome-pannel &" inside X session initialized by 
xinit:
- in xterm window: "setxkbmap pl" (for initialize polish keyboard mapping)
- chhose from menu Preferences -> Keyboard and after this keyboard is
   unavalaible.

So bug proably is in some part of control-center or somethin aroud. Now I 
have installed control-center 2.9.3 (2.9.4 was released during my 
upgrade).

Tomorrow I'll try to upgrade control-center to 2.9.4 but it IMO should be 
OK with 2.9.3.

I'm not check is above is repeatable without "setxkbmap pl".
