IIUC There's a bit of a mess here introduced by the multi-tty code: if you
run an "emacsclient -t" on /dev/tty1, then suspend it and then run another
one on that same tty, you apparently get two `terminal' objects but a single
keyboard object.
And the terminal objects are somewhat new in multi-tty, so the variables
were really and still are keyboard-local rather than terminal-local (the
C code identifiers clearly always referred to "keyboard" rather than
"terminal").
This said, I'm not actually sure that this is the case: maybe every terminal
has its own keyboard, really. If not, I believe we should "merge" keyboards
and terminals so as to get rid of this distinction, if at all possible.
