Ok. I find the problem and there is something really wrong in the code.

Workaround:  "xmodmap -pm"

I get 

shift       Shift_L (0x32),  Shift_R (0x3e)
lock        Caps_Lock (0x42)
control     Control_L (0x25),  Control_R (0x69)
mod1        Alt_L (0x40),  Meta_L (0xcd)
mod2        Num_Lock (0x4d)
mod3
mod4        Super_L (0x85),  Super_R (0x86),  Super_L (0xce),  Hyper_L (0xcf)
mod5        ISO_Level3_Shift (0x5c),  Mode_switch (0xcb)

It's pretty urgent for Super_l or Super_R to be the first one its line. (The
code is buggy and only looks for the first one - for the last five years :-( ).

So if you have

mod4          Hyper_L (0xcf), Super_L (0x85),  Super_R (0x86),  Super_L (0xce)

it wont work.

Put 

xmodmap -e "clear mod4"
xmodmap -e "add mod4 = Super_L"

into a file 'xmodmap.sh' in .kde(4)/env or /etc/Xmodmaprc if your distribution
has it.

With the next 4.3 snapshot the problem should vanish.
