Mine always looked like this:

xmodmap: up to 2 keys per modifier, (keycodes in parentheses):

shift Shift_L (0x32), Shift_R (0x3e)
lock Caps_Lock (0x42)
control Control_L (0x25), Control_R (0x6d)
mod1 Meta_L (0x40), Alt_R (0x71)
mod2 Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3 =20
mod4 Multi_key (0x73), Meta_R (0x74)
mod5 Scroll_Lock (0x77)

which looks sane to me. Here's the (maybe) interesting part: When I
press <ALT>, I see:
=20
Input keysym 0xFFE7, 0:'' 7bit
Handle 7bit-key

But when I then press f (while holding down ALT) no output appears in
the log at all, although I have:

meta_left mask 0x8 is Mod1 modifier
alt_right mask 0x8 is Mod1 modifier
num_lock mask 0x10 is Mod2 modifier
meta_right mask 0x40 is Mod4 modifier

in my logs, which looks also okay to me.
Puzzled,
