 I have a spanish layout keyboard, and when I boot into Open Firmware,
 it treats it as a US International keyboard (so the / is not where it is
 printed on the keyboard, neither is the :, etc). This is just a
 nuisance that I can get over, but if children are going to be trying
 stuff out in OFW (which they probably will not) or there is going to
 be significant OFW debugging and/or upgrading in non-US layout
 countries, this issue should be resolved somehow.
