System name:		hodge
Type and version:	KN01 7.1H (2 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		PM-MONO
Window manager:		{gwm|twm|none}

What were you trying to do?
	Bind a key to Meta-Control-Shift-LeftButton

What's wrong:
	I couldn't.  Here is output when I hold down the Meta, Shift,
	and Ctrl keys in sequence:

KeyPress event, serial 17, synthetic NO, window 0x1c00001,
	root 0x23, subw 0x0, time 147596811, (210,237), root:(225,416),
	state 0x0, keycode 177 (keysym 0xff20, Multi_key), same_screen YES,
	XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""

KeyPress event, serial 17, synthetic NO, window 0x1c00001,
	root 0x23, subw 0x0, time 147597037, (210,237), root:(225,416),
	state 0x8, keycode 174 (keysym 0xffe1, Shift_L), same_screen YES,
	XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""

	The output is similar when I try any sequence of three modifiers.
	The first two modifiers are sent as KeyPress events, and the
	third is ignored.
	

What should have happened:
	All three KeyPress events should have been sent.
