Yeah, it's just an arbitrary number.  The GDK API looked like multiple keycodes
could be mapped to a single keyval.  I arbitrarily chose 8 as an unlikely high
number of keycodes to be mapped to a keyval, but it is just a guess.  I have
little familiarity with GDK or X.  It would be fine to refactor it to allocate
the saved keycodes array dynamically, or to bump the number up.
