I do not advocate changing the > tarball, just the BK repo behind it. So you would like to remove defkeymap.c from the bitkeeper repository. Can you briefly explain why? I am not a bk user so have no feeling for what one would like bk to do. But it seems to me that if defkeymap.c is only a generated file when no kbd headers have changed, while in the opposite case one needs a private version of loadkeys until the next version of kbd has been distributed, it is easier to regard it as part of the kernel source.
