I finally managed to get kbd-1.08 built and installed in a manner consistent with Red Hat 7.3 and kernel 2.6.0-test7, AND had to make a bit more than the obvious edit to the jp106 keymap file, and got it working for a jp106 PS/2 keyboard. You are right that it can be done without modifying defkeymap.c_shipped. (I haven't tried it with USB yet.)
