OK.  More information about the problem.   Running the perl script in debug
mode I get something like this when I press a button:

>> 4 Length
>> 09 Device:
>> 08 Device:
>> 7F Device:
>> 10 Device:
byte = 9 code = 16
undefined key:09 for
Eating key 09
Eating key 09
Eating key 09
Eating key 09



It looks as if what should be displayed for "device" is blank.  Anybody
else running into this?
The only thing I did different from the original instructions is I skipped
the mknod line to create the remote device.  I'm running Gentoo with devfs,
and the devices are created automatically when I load the module.
