I'll have a look how the mouse driver does that and see if I can do
something similar for kbd - I'm not sure that's really necessary though,
the only NetBSD port that could run XFree86 without wscons was i386 - it
switched to wscons ages ago.

I wasn't sure, I have only Type 5 keyboards here ( well, one 5 and one
5c, both US ). Anyway, I tested the whole thing on NetBSD/macppc too -
works as expected.
