Under 4.0, there is a Defaults entry /Input/Keymap_Directory (by default,
/usr/lib/keymaps) which contains a number of .keydef files which should
seem to be something like the outpuy of your getkbd.c.  Ideally, these
should be used by input_from_defaults, but they don't seem to be.  There
doesn't seem to be any documentaion on their format.

Perhaps in 4.1, you will be able to set Input/Keymap_Directory
to ~/keymaps, and by running input_from_defaults, have a Dvorak keyboard
on any machine you use.
