I thought that was how the "FreeBSD" keyword was implemented.
LocalKeyword was widely supported with patches before it was added to
the official CVS development tree...

The comments in the CVSROOT-src/config file seem to confirm that,
although I'm not sure where the definition is *really* added.

I'm too lazy to track it down now, though.  To be (even more) honest,
I have a strong desire *not* to be a CVS expert.
