There's more. The ohci_process_done error is where the kernel tried
unsuccessfully to update the LED's on the keyboard. Everything was fine
until then, and was fine when I rebooted.

So to clarify, there are two bugs:

1) the keyboard never gets turned on: to work around, use the wsconsctl
command I posted

2) The Apple USB keyboard freaks out occasionally when setting LED state.
This will happen if the first keypress isn't a non-printing key, and can
occasionally happen later.

Take care,
