The "unexpected RESEND from keyboard" message comes from the gnumach
keyboard driver, so something is definitely getting wrong somewhere
there.

Well, putting printfs here and there in the keyboard driver to see
what's happening, whether there are perhaps concurrent accesses to the
keyboard port (0x61 and 0x64), etc. Not something I can describe in
a mere mail, it's mostly about experimenting, checking how the driver
behaves and what seems to be going wrong.
