Being specific to Left Ctrl+Alt I find really annoying, as a moderate
touch-typist who dislikes having to move far off the 'home' positions.
(Moving the right hand over to the F<1-4> keys...Bad)

I've hacked my wskbdmap_mfii.c (patch below if anyone wants it), as
it's by far nicer IMHO to use Right Ctrl+Alt and then the left hand
for the function key. (I presume pcvt's use of F9-F12 for screens 0-3
would have been motivated by the same reasons.)

One of these days I might be cheesed off enough to make it a bug report...
