Confirmed here. I've combed through gconf-editor, looking for where this
might be flipping settings, but can't find it yet. It's a compiled-C
program, so I can't peek in the source easily to find out what it's
doing (some of these utilities are python... this one isn't)
I did use xmodmap -pke to get a dump when the setting is turned on and off:
(filtered to relevant lines)
before (stock CapsLock key behavior == Default):
keycode 9 = Escape NoSymbol Escape NoSymbol Escape
keycode 66 = Caps_Lock NoSymbol Caps_Lock NoSymbol Caps_Lock
after (stock CapsLock key behavior == Make CapsLock an additional ESC):
keycode 9 = VoidSymbol NoSymbol VoidSymbol NoSymbol VoidSymbol
keycode 66 = Escape NoSymbol Escape NoSymbol Escape
