And the bug has now been fixed in GTK.  The fix should be released and
reach most users rather quickly, so I'm closing this bug.

 with pgtk

With pgtk some keypad keys seem to be recognised as their normal
equivalents rather than the keypad versions.

Enter, insert, delete and the navigation keys all seem to work as
expected and are recognised as kp-enter etc.

The number keys (when numlock is on) and /, (, - and + and just
recognised as normal keys from the main keyboard rather than as
kp-subtract etc.
