Thanks for the clues.
Found out I've still got xlibs 6.9.0.dfsg.1-6 installed.
When I try to apt-get remove this, it also removes:
gnome-applets gnome-control-center gnome-panel gnome-session
gnome-terminal nautilus totem totem-gstreamer
When I reinstall these, it reinstalls xlibs.
gnome-control-center 1:2.12.3-2 depends on xlibs (unversioned)
(bug #365977, perhaps?)
totem-gstreamer 1.2.1-4 depends on xlibs (>= 4.2.1-9)
xlibs (transitional?) 1:7.0.* is still in experimental
This may explain why the /etc/X11/xkb files are still in play?
I'll try installing the experimental xlibs and see what happens.
