Console key repeat rate zapped by X

Key repeat rate in X is fine (xset when necessary).

Key repeat rate on the console is fine using kbdcontrol -r fast or
keyrate="fast" in /etc/rc.conf.

However, when X quits or restarts, it resets the console repeat rate to
either normal or slow (it feels like slow, either way).

Is there a way to get X to just leave the console key repeat rate alone?
