There is an ADB command that you can send to the extended keyboards 
that will do this. I think you tell it that it's device handler id
is 3 instead of 2 or something silly like that. I've got it written
down somewhere at home.

Adding support for things like this, as well as more mouse support,
it something I hope to do soon. These particular changes are 
independant of which method is used to access ADB, so everyone
will be able to use them once I check them into the kernel sources.

The questions are:
1. What changes will have to be made to the X server or dt if the
   left and right shift/control/etc keys send different keycodes.
2. If the kernel detects an extended keyboard, should turning on
   these additional keycodes be the default behavior?
