the keyboard map driver boyd mentions provides a keyboard map device, but
is distributed in a package that also changes kbd.c to allow its rune tables to
be read and written.

Thanks. Please, do you remember what driver and/or file(s) are you talking
about?
I've found hardcoded keyboard mapping in both:
	/sys/src/9/$cputype/kbd.c       (machine-dependent kernel code)
	/sys/src/libcontrol/keyboard.c
Maybe there are other files like these.

TIA,
