[openbeos] PS2 hid issue

Morning / afternoon / evening
CONFIGURATION:
I have a USB keyboard, but use the BIOS to emulate a PS2 keyboard for legacy
OS's (in this case, Haiku).
PROBLEM:
A few weeks ago, I was able to use the keyboard from Haiku. Haven't played
with Haiku for a few weeks. With the latest builds, during the boot
process, Haiku will crash when the BootScript launches the input_server.
INVESTIGATION:
- When I remove the /Haiku/beos/system/add-ons/input_server/devices/keyboard
file, Haiku will boot normally (but with no keyboard). With this file,
Haiku crashes.
- When I boot into safe mode (where the input_server is not started), the
consoled successfully utilises the keyboard.
- The KeyboardInputDevice.cpp file will crash when calling
StartMonitorDevice(kKeyboardDevicesDirectoryPS2) in the KyeboardInputDevice
constructor. BTW Haiku doesn't check the status_t from StartMonitorDevice()
function call.
FURTHER INFORMATION:
Here is a rewritten snap from a screendump:

There is no continuation from here.
Any ideas (Marcus, Jerome, Axel)?
