If you have trouble with Alt/Meta-modified keypresses, you can always
use the Escape prefix instead. Or you can use key-translation-map to
globally map some other sequence to Meta-Tab, e.g.:
(define-key key-translation-map [(control ?c) ?t] [(meta tab)])
Actually, this doesn't work right; it causes C-c to always expect a
following key, so e.g. C-c C-c in a shell-mode buffer
(comint-interrupt-subjob) just waits for the next key, with
"C-c C-c -" displayed in the echo area.
[This sort of makes sense; C-c C-c t gets mapped to C-c M-Tab.]
So, if you want to globally remap something to M-Tab, you'll need to
use a single chord rather than a sequence.
