showkey and loadkeys should be all it takes.

AFAIR Roman collects the kernel keymaps, dunno about anyone keeping tabs
on X keymaps...

the adb_buttons=<x,y> kernel option is your friend here. Insert convenient
keycodes found using showkey for x and y.

IIRC Jes had an inofficial 5.2 port but RH is at 6.2 by now. I haven't
heard Jes advertise his RH port much lately.
I've heard someone making noises about porting the RH installer for Mac
