Setting key repeat rate?

Somehow I can't set the keyboard delay and repeat rate in xorg.conf.
The relevant section is this:

Section "InputDevice"
	Identifier  "Keyboard0"
	Driver      "kbd"
	Option      "AutoRepeat" "250 30"
	Option      "XkbRules" "xorg"
	Option      "XkbModel" "pc102"
	Option      "XkbLayout" "us"
	Option      "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps,compose:ralt"
EndSection

The other options concerning the keymap are honored, but the repeat
setting is stuck at the slow defaults (660 25, if I'm to believe
xset q).  "xset r rate 250 30" works fine, but I'd like to set this
already in xorg.conf.

Xorg.0.log:

...
(**) Option "CoreKeyboard"
(**) Keyboard0: Core Keyboard
(**) Option "Protocol" "standard"
(**) Keyboard0: Protocol: standard

(**) Keyboard0: XkbLayout: "us"
(**) Option "XkbOptions" "ctrl:swapcaps,compose:ralt"
(**) Keyboard0: XkbOptions: "ctrl:swapcaps,compose:ralt"
(**) Option "CustomKeycodes" "off"
(**) Keyboard0: CustomKeycodes disabled
