keymap help: how to use a real Meta key?



I just got a new Happy Hacking keyboard with the escape and control keys
in the right place and a real Meta key instead of the windows key.
However, the default key map doesn't make use of the meta key; it is
using an 'alt is meta' binding. I would like to set it up so that the
Alt key is Alt and the Meta (diamond) key is Meta -- just like on a
Sun keyboard. I haven't been able to figure out how to get the system
to notice the Meta key. It generates keycode 94 (left-Meta) and 92
(right-Meta) but I can't see anyplace in the keymap files where I can
tell it to use it.

Has anybody else been down this road?
