>Description:
The build of sysinstall runs kbdcontrol -L with the unadorned names of
keymap files, which kbdcontrol finds on the host system instead of the
source tree.  This is a problem when trying to compile the 4.6
sysinstall on an older system that does not have all the keymaps.
For instance, on FreeBSD 4.3 there is no ua.koi8-u.shift.alt keymap
file.
>How-To-Repeat:
mv /usr/share/syscons/keymaps /usr/share/syscons/keymaps.save

and try to build sysinstall.
>Fix:
The following patch to my copy of src/release/sysinstall/Makefile seems
to do the trick:
