I can now report that rebooting into Mac OS X, and then back into Linux, solved the problem. I have no idea why, but the special keys work correctly again. Even the raw key scancodes (obtained from showkey -s) are now different (and correct). Is it possible that the keyboard electronics actually became confused and OS X ran an integrity check over it while booting? -- Kevin B.
