I'm _sorry_ if I wrote this PR badly. I'm novice ;-).

So may I post another (and better) PR?

(And saw somebody gnu/6130?)

:-). I'm not feeling free... (I even some few minutes thought that FreeBSD
is not as good system as I hoped... Really thanks to Bruce... But thanks
to Jordan too... I'm very pleased.)

Believe to me. In this state, kbdcontrol and vidcontrol are very
inconsistent. You can call
"vidcontrol -f 8x?? XXX", where XXX is file "/usr/share/syscons/fonts/XXX",
but You cannot call
"kbdcontrol -l XXX", where XXX is file "/usr/share/syscons/keymaps/XXX".
I lost some minutes to solve this problem. And I think - I'm not the
last human on this world, who had problems with this...

Patch for kbdcontrol was taken directly from vidcontrol just because to
make commands consistent. If You don't like implicit paths, You must remove
them from both kbdcontrol and vidcontrol and change rc.i386 and change many
others maybe...
