It looks like you need a newer xkeyboard-config.  I just bumped the version in MacPorts to 2.0 which has the required files.  Leopard and SL users were getting their copies from the Apple or MacOSForge versions.  I can't really explain why it was working before for you, but this should fix it...

Thanks,
Jeremy
