The autodetection changes the layout according to the layout used in
windows. This can be overridden in the XF86Config file but this not
needed in most cases.

If the layout is correct with startxwin.bat then it is also loaded with
xdmcp. Maybe CDE does load a wrong modmap?

Can you try xev and press Alt-Gr?

For me it reports the following. 

KeyPress event, serial 22, synthetic NO, window 0x1600001,
    root 0x3a, subw 0x1600002, time 1891239428, (55,39), root:(136,215),
    state 0x0, keycode 113 (keysym 0xfe03, ISO_Level3_Shift), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""

KeyRelease event, serial 27, synthetic NO, window 0x1600001,
    root 0x3a, subw 0x1600002, time 1891239498, (55,39), root:(136,215),
    state 0x80, keycode 113 (keysym 0xfe03, ISO_Level3_Shift), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 characters:  ""
