Bug Description

The keys 44 and 57 are not properly recognized. The Levels one till four are recognized properly, but instead of the character level 5(/ISO_Level3_Shift), the keycode for level 1 is submitted.

xev output attached. Theoretically, ISO_Level3_Shift+Key44 should return an о (Cyrillic o), and ISO_Level3_Shift+Key57 a т. But instead, it reaturn just j / n, while other keys return the correct Cyrillic characters.

Can't get the debug output, so assuming it's been fixed in the meantime.
