The value of key-delay in /etc/evkeyd.conf is always ignored. Key delay is set to its default value and a warning message "invalid key delay, using default" is output to evkeyd.log. Attached patch fixes the problem (which is due to a "cut-and-paste" error in config.c).

This is fixed in the upstream CVS (on sourceforge).
