According to XFConfig(5), the only possible mappings are:

                    Meta
                    Compose
                    ModeShift
                    ModeLock
                    ScrollLock
                    Control

Try Compose.

Also, you can use `xev' to determine which keycode Alt on your sun kbd produces
and remap RightAlt to generate this code with `xmodmap'.
