Just to clarify, Robert uses a setup equivalent to
  setxkbmap -option "grp:alt_shift_toggle" "de,pl"

This means that he toggles between de and pl layout by pressing alt+shift
simultaneously. In this case
  setxkbmap -print
gives the same output

xkb_keymap {
        xkb_keycodes { include "evdev+aliases(qwertz)" };
        xkb_types { include "complete" };
        xkb_compat { include "complete" };
        xkb_symbols { include
        "pc+de+pl:2+inet(evdev)+group(alt_shift_toggle)" };
        xkb_geometry { include "pc(pc104)" };
};

independent of which layout is active.

Btw, the thread started with a valid bug report for dwm in this setup, which
could be fixed via
diff --git a/dwm.c b/dwm.c

not sure if you want to apply this to mainline dwm?
