I do, but my methods are such that I don't know whether they'll do
you any good...

I'm using the Win95 keys in WindowMaker on Debian.  The left Windows
key is recognized as being Mod4 and functions normally as a meta.
The right Windows key is recognized as Multi_key (and it was a real
pain trying to get it to work until I realized that this meant "a key
named multi" rather than "multiple keys have been pressed").  The
menu key is, quite sensibly, acknowledged as "Menu".

But if you're messing with xmodmap by hand in Red Hat, I doubt that
this does much more than confirm for you that, yes, the Win95 keys
can be made to work under Linux.  (Oh, and also, wmaker has trouble
recording key combinations involving them when NumLock is on.  Once
it's set, though, it's recognized with or without NumLock.)
