I confirm that this solves the problem. In fact, I need both
Driver "keyboard"
and
Option "XkbDisable" "true"
So, Shift-F1 now produces 'É' as expected, and switching virtual
console with Ctrl-Alt-F1 for instance now also works. But this
workaround prevents my from upgrading xserver-xorg-input-keyboard:
xserver-xorg-input-keyboard (1:1.2.1-1) UNRELEASED; urgency=low
The old "keyboard" driver has been removed and is now superseded by the
"kbd" driver. The corresponding "InputDevice" section in the xorg.conf
configuration file should be updated by replacing "keyboard" with "kbd"
on the "Driver" line.
