[ Multi byte ECMA sequences ]

That is one solution.  Another is to simply define codes in the  
Unicode user-defined range, which is perfectly allowable.  It would,  
of course, be nice if these just happened to coincide with the X  
mappings, but somehow I doubt that is the case.  Here are the  
definitions that Apple uses:

/* Unicodes we reserve for function keys on the keyboard,  OpenStep  
reserves the range 0xF700-0xF8FF for this purpose.  The availability  
of various keys will be system dependent. */
