We now have a much more flexible way of passing information from the
booter to the kernel, so might be able to add that fairly easily.  A
better (and far easier) way to do it would be to have an ioctl() and to
write a program to load an arbitrary keyboard mapping at boot time.
(In /etc/rc, for example.  Of course, you would have the American
keyboard until then.)

If you want to hardcode it, look at:

/usr/src/sys/arch/mac68k/dev/keyboard.h

and make sure to post the French copy in case someone else needs it.
