This doesn't work perfectly.  Sometimes the control key gets stuck, so
the next C you type comes out as Ctrl+C, which might cause accidents.
Hitting caps lock again unsticks it (but there is no indication before
the fact).  I had the same problem with uControl under Mac OS X.

But if Tiger can do this properly, so can NetBSD.  I have been meaning
to debug this option, but I haven't gotten around to do it...
