I've attached a patch that should restore binary compatibility. I first
thought this wasn't really needed, because most applications would use
K_RAW instead of K_XLATE anyway.

Just breaking binary compatibility with kbdcontrol(1) wouldn't have been
too bad, but it turns out things like SDL use this as well. I've
attached a patch that should restore binary compatibility. Anyone
interested in testing this before I commit it to SVN?
