Although I don't have one of these keyboards (with that fancy shmancy
numlock/keypad), you may consider attaching the compiled kernel module (.ko) for
this bug so other folks who do and don't have that exact keyboard can see if it
breaks things for them without waiting a few hours for the kernel build process
to complete locally.

I say this because I came across another bug the other day that there was a
gentleman who was talking the same thing about a bzr branch. Sure developers
don't have any troubles doing these sorts of things, but even a power user can
throw a way a few hours trying to figure out how to build something and then not
knowing if they broke it in the process.
