For now and until someone does it, can't we simply have one ar.map
and have all the country file's simply link (as in 'ln -s') to it.
This would, if anything, work across the board and would bring in
those that know anything about keymaps to correct the problem(s)
by creating new files.  In short, its the simplest thing to do so
as not to delay in BiCon's release.
