      As I think someone already mentioned, this whole scheme can be subverted
      by typing c-h-Function and then warm booting.
    This was discussed in my original message.  In short you need to mess with
    the various *-boot initializations.

Just do it again, before the first one completes.  You'll end up in a
break loop before any of the initializations run.

I do think hacking 1tv:kbd-convert-to-software-char0 will still be in
effect then, however.
