Interesting, the Search and Go keys are giving the same keycode to me at the
moment:

KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001,
    root 0x76, subw 0x0, time 3523077, (15,88), root:(1164,1103),
    state 0x0, keycode 230 (keysym 0x1008ff5f, XF86Go), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False

KeyPress event, serial 31, synthetic NO, window 0x2a00001,
    root 0x76, subw 0x0, time 3523610, (15,88), root:(1164,1103),
    state 0x0, keycode 230 (keysym 0x1008ff5f, XF86Go), same_screen YES,
    XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
    XFilterEvent returns: False


Oh well, hadn't noticed that before. :)
