I've just tested it with my local installation and it worked.
I've used these settings for the keyboard section

    Option "XkbRules"   "xfree86"
    Option "XkbModel"   "pc101"
    Option "XkbLayout"  "us_intl"

If this does not work, you can try
xkbcomp -xkm -m us_intl /etc/X11/xkb/keymap/xfree86 :0

Maybe the output does shed a little light on this problem. There will be
a lot of "Warning:          No symbols defined for <I62> (keycode 226)".
These are quite normal.
