On my one machine with current glibc, things were going well.  But a
few months ago I had slightly moved the machine and managed to somehow
break the PS/2 connection for the keyboard.  Switched to a usb
keyboard - lost s2ram, but hibernation still worked so it was
adequate.

A few hours ago I started running the regression tests for boost.
At first my keyboard other became intermittent, but when it came back
dmesg showed it disappearing and eventually reconnecting.  And then
it disappeared completely.  This was extremely annoying - I was
trying to fix up a gimp plugin in /tmp, so that will be gone.  I
eventually got a _time_ for the boost regression tests, and the build
is on a real filesystem so it should still be there but I've no idea
how much space it occupies.

But I can't boot (no keyboard).

Looking on the dark side, I suppose it is also possible that
something on the mobo has failed - I hope not!

Will start a fresh (8.3) build on my ryzen, but that is quite a bit
slower so unless I manage to get a suitable keyboard and to boot the
machine I will not be updating anything for a few days.
