All right, did that (put just in front of xmodmap statement).
The following is shown in /tmp/debug :
+ xmodmap -e 'keycode 96 = EuroSign'
+ logger '.xinitrc called for user me'
+ exec /usr/X11R6/bin/kde
xset:  bad font path element (#113), possible causes are:
    Directory does not exist or has wrong permissions
    Directory missing fonts.dir
    Incorrect font server address or syntax

kbuildsycoca running...
....... and some more stuff ........

What does this tell us ???
I believe the xset errormessage relates to the exec /usr/X11R6/bin/kde 
command, and has nothing to do with the xmodmap command. Right ?
Anyway, I have no clue what to do next.
