Comment(by pgf):

 i've released olpc-kbdshim-15 which fixed d-pad rotation (#10380), ignores
 repeats of the rotate button (i.e. one rotation per press), and
 incorporates martin's patch to olpc-rotate to honor the /var/run/olpc-
 rotate-reverse flag file, if present (which indicates xrandr goes
 backwards).

 i've done nothing with martin's other patch, to olpc-configure, olpc-
 session, and xorg.conf since i don't yet see consensus on moving forward.
 btw, i agree with dsd, above, that fixing SWRandR would be preferable to
 working around it.  is that possible?
