Pommed doesn't handle these keys. And I think it makes sense since
this way it let you map them to whatever you want. I think
KEY_CYCLEWINDOWS correspond to the Compiz-fusion plugin "Scale", and
KEY_CONFIG is probably supposed to be mapped to launch
gnome-control-center or kcontrol (actually I'm too lazy to reboot
under MacOSX to check :)
