Here is the latest version of mac-modifier-keys patch, which allows
people to freely assign modifier keys on their keyboard to Emacs
modifiers.
The current solution is overly complicated and doesn't allow certain
combinations of settings such as Command->Hyper (while saying Option-
>Meta). The reasoning behind it is described here.

Note that any xmodmap solution people may think of will not work on
OS X when using Carbon - OS X doesn't normally use X11 for its
graphics output.
I would like to recommend applying this now before the release is
readied, because otherwise one will have to change customization
options that get documented in the release. The present patch allows
for longer-term stability. (It is backwards-compatible to cater for
the many people who've been installing CVS Emacs.)
