Is XKB universally available? AFAICT, we don't require it, but use it
if available (not for XkbTranslateKeyCode, though).

Why would you need that? If we decide to use XkbTranslateKeyCode, we
could translate the keycode in C, according to some logic that took
into account the modifiers and perhaps also some user options, and
returned the resulting translated character.
