Matt,

The following PRs describe the keyboard problems I have experienced:

http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=57273
http://www.freebsd.org/cgi/query-pr.cgi?pr=63171

I applied the fix to my copy of the source code. It seems to have fixed the
keyboard issue. If you can't tell (by my non-stuttering keyboard), I am a
very happy camper now :)

Before you ask, I only applied the "break -> continue" patch and didn't look
into the "wrong pointer type" patch of PR 63171.
