The Right Ctrl key no longer works to do things in the Canadian Multilingual Keyboard and cannot be selected as the 'host key'. Reverting to version 3.2.10 cured the problem.

Can you post the scancode of that key? That is, what is the output of xev if you enter this key?

On the linux host:

KeyPress event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x3400001,

root 0x6b, subw 0x0, time 415215654, (988,326), root:(992,373), state 0x0, keycode 109 (keysym 0xfe11, ISO_Level5_Shift), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 0 bytes: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes: XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyRelease event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x3400001,

FYI, just installed 4.0.0 and the right control key works fine.

I hope that this test build from the stable tree (please see the Testbuilds page) will fix the issue:
