    Okay, so one uses "xmodmap +l Caps_Lock" to make the Caps key set
    the lock modifier bit.  But what I really want to do is use it as
    another up/down modifier on mouse buttons -- has anyone modified
    the Sun server to restore the X10 hack that lets you put the Caps
    key in up/down mode?  It's a big win...

Yech, hacking the server is a big lose.  Why don't you just use xmodmap
to place that key on some other modifier besides Lock (like Mod1)?  Then
the Sun server will restore it to up/down mode.
