There are two keyboard drivers in XFree now. The old one named 'keyboard'
built in the server and the new driver 'kbd' as a loadable module. Of course
the new one is intended to replace the built-in driver but the os-depended
parts for it is written for linux and BSD (tested with FreeBSD) only.
The lnx_io.c and lnx_kbd.c are os-depended parts of the old and new drivers
correspondly.
