Bug Description

I have following settings in /etc/default/console-setup
XKBMODEL="pc104"
XKBLAYOUT="us,ru"
XKBVARIANT=","
XKBOPTIONS="grp:caps_toggle,lv3:ralt_switch,misc:typo,terminate:ctrl_alt_bksp"

Logging into text console and starting xinit -- :1 doesn't apply rules for misc:typo option, so I have to run setxkbmap.

xprop -root gives right settings:
$ xprop -root

Output of xkbcomp after start is attached. Also xkbcomp outputs following to stderr
Warning: Could not load keyboard geometry for :1
                  BadAlloc (insufficient resources for operation)
                  Resulting keymap file will not describe geometry
