Sorry for the delay in responding.  This version of ukbd.c hasn't
made any obvious improvement - the ugen2.2 and ukbd0 probe messages
still don't appear until about a second after the single-user
prompt for a shell.  (I haven't tried breaking my root mount to see
if input at the mountroot> prompt now works).
