csharp-mode[1] is not hosted on ELPA or in Emacs core, so I'm not
going to blame Emacs developers for not checking it, but it may
have issues with this patch.

csharp-mode has gone halfway through a transition to use of
"make-derive-mode", but it's not 100% there.

That means that it currently (still) uses "c-make-inherited-keymap" to
configure itself[2].

If fixing it on my end is easy, I guess that will be easier than
objecting to this patch. I see there's a suggestion posted[3] which I
can try out.

Just thought I'd put it out there that there are indeed more 3rd party
modules depending on the current implementation.
