Thanks!

Since it's now using pc_kbd as a base, I guess key repeater is now
supported (xkb/README still says it's not)?  Also, README needs to be
updated to stop saying that you need to replace -d pc_kbd with -d xkb.

Do you have assigned your copyrights on Hurd changes to the FSF?  This
is needed before your changes can be commited upstream.

The xkb/Compose file is compatible with usual Xorg Compose files, right?
I guess we don't want to ship it but rather use e.g.
/usr/share/X11/locale/<thelocale>/Compose

Is there a reason not to use keysymdef.h installed by the Xorg x11proto
package rather than copying it?

I also guess xkb-data files could be used instead of shipping
default.xkb?

It also seems to me like :kb/xkbdefaults.c could be generated at build
instead of shipped?

Rather than copy/pasting ks_table.h, kstoucs.c and symname.c, I'd rather
see the Hurd console simply depend on libX11, actually.
