Just to clarify, Robert uses a setup equivalent to
  setxkbmap -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle" "de,pl"

This means that he toggles between de and pl layout by pressing alt+shift
simultaneously. In this case 
  setxkbmap -print 
gives the same output

xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwertz)" };
        xkb_types     { include "complete"      };
        xkb_compat    { include "complete"      };
        xkb_symbols   { include
        "pc+de+pl:2+inet(evdev)+group(alt_shift_toggle)"        };
        xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc104)"     };
};

independent of which layout is active. 

Btw, the thread started with a valid bug report for dwm in this setup, which
could be fixed via

not sure if you want to apply this to mainline dwm?
