Keyboard LED control in Linux broken?

  Hello!

   I'm at my wits end trying to get LED control to work with 0.101  
under Linux. I'm using an iPAC connected to an LED interface board  
(http://www.gamecab.com/LED%20Wiring.htm) and everything at the  
hardware level is fine. Toggling numlock (either on the pass-through  
keyboard or using setleds +num) lights the numlock associated LED  
perfectly.

   Nothing, however, works from within advancemame. I know the  
scripts are working because I can add a msg("LED1") action to the  
script_led1 entry in advmame.rc and I see the message on the  
appropriate event within a given game... but no numlock light toggle  
happens.

   I've tried:

script_led1 on(kdb, 0b1); wait(!event()); off(kdb, 0b1);

   and:

script_led1 on(0, 0b1); wait(!event()); off(0, 0b1);

   Also - I've used both svgalib and raw for device_keyboard (not  
sure that this even matters). I've tried the system with the keyboard  
running on the PS/2 port and on USB (USB is my preferred config for  
this box).

   No permutation seems to work no matter what I try.

   I'm either missing something, the documentation is no longer  
accurate, or Linux control of the keyboard LEDs is non-functional.

   Has anyone else gotten it to work?

Thanks for any input!
  - Aaron
