Wrong.  I know basically nothing about the input/keyboard code.  But...

Andries Brouwer posted, in another thread, that one should be able to
take the code from the message, and edit the table atkbd_set2_keycode...

Were it that simple (my patch is attached).  For the two buttons that
yielded the error message, I changed the 0 to the keycode that 2.4 used
to provide...

So this makes the messages go away, that's only half the battle.  If you
run with this patch, you'll notice that the Prev button generates the
same X keycode as the End key (which is busted).

I have no earthly idea how the keycodes in atkdb.c map to X keycodes. 
Maybe somebody can explain it in a simple way...
