That doesn't sound too great.

What I'd like to see, if both hid.o and usbkbd.o can handle a keyboard,
is that hid.o gets the job.  Then usbkbd.o can stay in config.in and be
built just in case it's needed.

Ah, OK, thanks.  Unfortunately, I've already moved onto 2.4.18 built
from source due to some of my other needs.
