Thank you, I was going to post this as a Comment in the bug report, but 
my login isn't working and I'm pressed for time this morning.

Reporting it here for historical purposes in case anyone else runs into 
it.  The code in Comment 6 in the bug report fixed the issue.


Using this diff on current sources updated 12 pm UTC today and 
rebuilding/installing the kernel, fixed the problem:

# diff -u /usr/src/sys/dev/hid/hkbd.c.orig /usr/src/sys/dev/hid/hkbd.c
