(To be clear, I'm setting /etc/default/keyboard *and* calling
setupcon on ~/.console-setup for tty logins *and* calling setxkbmap for
X sessions.)

At least part of the problem was

    XKBOPTIONS="altwin:ctrl_win ctrl:nocaps"

is wrong, ignoring at least the first option;

    XKBOPTIONS="altwin:ctrl_win,ctrl:nocaps"

honors at least the first option.

(I don't have an external keyboard handy today to test the other half.)
