Just tested: 
- with -kb, but without XF86Config: no autorepeat at all...
/tmp/XWin.log:
(--) Setting autorepeat to delay=500, rate=31
winKeybdProc - Error initializing keyboard AutoRepeat (No XKB)

- with -kb and XF86Config: autorepeat is ok
/tmp/XWin.log:
(--) Setting autorepeat to delay=500, rate=31
(**) Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
(**) AutoRepeat: 500 30
winKeybdProc - Error initializing keyboard AutoRepeat (No XKB)

- with +kb and no XF86Config: autorepeat is ok
/tmp/XWin.log:
(--) Setting autorepeat to delay=500, rate=31

- with +kb and XF86Config
(--) Setting autorepeat to delay=500, rate=31
(**) Option "AutoRepeat" "500 30"
(**) AutoRepeat: 500 30

I think Takuma is right.

By the way, most of the messages are duplicate in XWin.log: it seems 
like X is starting 2 times. Is this by design ?

I've attached XWin.log for the first case tested.
