Since XLookupString gives 0 characters, that is what Emacs gets too.  Your 
NumLock seems to be mapped to Mod3, I recognize this problem, I had it on Suns 
also (years ago).  Are you using a Sun keyboard?  Does your AltGr produce Mod2 
(state 0x10)?  You can perhaps use xmodmap to change that.  What does
% xmodmap -pm

show?
