Sven mentioned a problem with the keymap code that he said he fixed in
CVS. It's not about bmap vs. bmp but about an additional path component in
the keymaps.tgz archive I think. The error message is bogus.

.bmap, that's what the zcat command asks for. The .bmp in the error
message is bogus. Change the error message, and look for Sven's message on
that subject.
