Check that atkbd is using flags 0x1.  That should cause atkbd not to
attach and allow ukbd to take over.  If your system happens to emulate a
atkbd even when one is not attached, you will have to modify the start
scripts to run kbdcontrol even in the single-user case (if thats even
possible).

A more recent -CURRENT should fix this issue for you.
