Oh, it seems you are another victim of the binary module format change.
You still have old .o modules around next to the new .so modules.
Unfortunately it's pretty unpredictable which module X chooses to load
when both a new .so and an old .o module exits. Try moving the
whole /usr/X11R6/lib/modules directory out of the way and run make
install again in the xorg tree. This way you should end up with a clean
tree that has only the new .so modules.

Make sure that you have the latest version of my host.def. Otherwise you
don't get a new keyboard driver.

That should be fine.
