There's no LEX line in the output, so I assume not.

I get the following, run under a 'set -x' shell for clarity:

+ loadkeys -u /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/bg_bds-utf8.map.gz
unknown keysym 'compose'
/lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/bg_bds-utf8.map.gz:704: syntax error
syntax error in map file
key bindings not changed
Loading /lib/kbd/keymaps/i386/qwerty/bg_bds-utf8.map.gz
+ dumpkeys
+ loadkeys -u
+ dumpkeys
unknown keysym 'compose'
<stdin>:692: syntax error
syntax error in map file
key bindings not changed
Loading <stdin>
+ dumpkeys
+ cmp keymap-old.map keymap-new.map
+ echo 'FILES ARE SAME'
FILES ARE SAME

Interestingly, I can't reproduce this on a Fedora 17 host, nor on a
CentOS 6.3 or CentOS 5.8 VM.  In those environments, the original
kbd-1.15.5 works just fine.

I wonder whether there's something specific to the Linux From Scratch
toolchain that's causing this issue?  I'll see if I can investigate
further.

Thanks,

Matt.
