.e., it is recognized as C-M-%. =C2=A0I also tried it in an xterm window ('=
emacs -nw'), and it fails there but in a different way than in mintty: emac=
s sees it as C-%.

I don't know how the C-% in xterm comes about since by default xterm
doesn't encode multiple modifier keys on digits. There is a
"modifyOtherKeys" mode however that does support it. See the xterm
docs for details.

Meanwhile, mintty has a mintty-specific encoding for such combinations
that's based on numpad keycodes. The keycodes section of the mintty
man page has more on that. Xterm modifyOtherKeys mode is supported,
too.
