	After the ‘epo(basic)’ layout is activated with ISO_Next_Group,
	bound to Right Alt, it's no longer possible to switch layouts.

	The keyboard layout is configured as:

$ setxkbmap -layout us,epo -option grp:toggle

	I believe that symbols/epo shouldn't try to include
	‘level3(ralt_switch)’ by itself (although I've seen it being
	done in some other symbols/* files), leaving it up to the
	explicit user's action; such as, e. g.:

$ setxkbmap -layout us,epo -option grp:switch

	The patch MIME'd fixes the issue for me.

	Dankas antaŭe.
