Ah, there you go!

I used gdm3, and here's the output of setxkbmap -print:

xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include "pc+it+us:2+inet(evdev)"	};
	xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"	};
};

Then I switched to lightdm, and there you go:

xkb_keymap {
	xkb_keycodes  { include "evdev+aliases(qwerty)"	};
	xkb_types     { include "complete"	};
	xkb_compat    { include "complete"	};
	xkb_symbols   { include
"pc+it+inet(evdev)+level3(ralt_switch)+compose(lwin)+terminate(ctrl_alt_bksp)"	};
xkb_geometry  { include "pc(pc105)"	};
};

A bare X session, using xterm, also gives this last one output.
I guess the culprit is gdm3/experimental (which I was using) here -- bug
reassigned.

Thanks for your help,
David
