Glancing over the devel lists, it looks like you guys are already homing 
in on the keyboard mapper. I was able to generate my own build of 1.6.0 
with a working CAPS LOCK and arrow keys, by intermingling XT & AT 
keycodes. One bizarre result: w & t refuse to be capped, regardless of 
the code used. (btw, using US keyboard with Windows keys)

Also, in my attempt to rewrite the keymapper code, I noticed that CAPS 
LOCK doesn't seem to be directly handled, and there's a lot of clutching 
of the LEFT-SHIFT to determine SHIFT status, even though RIGHT-SHIFT and 
SHIFT statuses are available. You may want to look into this for solving 
other keymap issues.
