Syslinux - Dec 2015 - [PATCH] keytab-lilo: update to support kbd 2.0.3 format

Since kbd 2.0.3 (commit 6ff47cf2) the format generated by 'loadkeys -m'
has
changed slightly, using "unsigned short" instead of
"u_short"

How this change would affect users with older versions of kbd / 
loadkeys / or in older OSes? I mean, let's assume a user using a newer 
version of Syslinux (containing this proposed change in its keytab-lilo 
perl script) but with an older OS / older version of kbd / loadkeys / 
map files.

TIA,
Ady.

The changed regular expression will work for both formats from what I
can see.
