this patch adds an entry in Kconfig after 'config MAGIC_SYSRQ' which
asks for a different keycode (replacing also KEY_SYSRQ with
CONFIG_MAGIC_SYSRQ_KEYCODE in char/keyboard.c)
    

Quite frankly, I think that if we want to make something like this 
configurable, it should be dynamic, not compiled-in. So that the same 
kernel image can be used with different keyboards.

That's right; but let me explain: I started this as a hack, just because
I both wanted to use this Apple USB keyboard and wanted to be able to
hit SysRq.

I have no experience at all in programming kernel. Even that small patch
it was reviewed and corrected by some people on kernel and input mailing
lists.

(I can imagine it could be done via a /proc/sysrq-keycode virtual file,
but that's just one possibility)

So, this should turn into a feature request...
would you accept feature requests?  ( :
