The problem is related to the keymap:

$ xmodmap -pke | grep 'keycode *91'
keycode 91 = KP_Delete period comma U202F comma U202F

Here is the workaround:
$ xmodmap -e 'keycode 91 = KP_Delete KP_Decimal KP_Separator U202F comma U202F'

Here is my xorg.conf:

Section "InputDevice"
        Identifier "Generic Keyboard"
        Driver "kbd"
        Option "CoreKeyboard"
        Option "XkbRules" "xorg"
        Option "XkbModel" "pc105"
        Option "XkbLayout" "fr"
        Option "XkbVariant" "oss"
EndSection

I will report a separate bug for the xserver-xorg-input-kbd package.
