loadkeys braindamage



So - loadkeys from console-tools never touches a keycode that there is no
'keycode' line for in the definition.  Binary loadkeys from busybox DOES,
however, and does not preserve the fill information.

For powermacs, this is a problem.  Keycode 0 is never handled well by
console-tools (note dumpkeys does not show it) - but for us, it is 'a'.
Oh, well.

Usually it is unset by console-tools (because of an apparent error in the
data files, I think), but our loadkeys trashes it.

I've hacked around this in console-data.  But it is just another reason our
separate loadkeys is a very dangerous (and brittle) idea.
