Ok, I have it working, but I am slightly disturbed by the potential
repercusions:

If I remove the clear of the PIC, it works under PC-DOS and MS-DOS.  Anybody
have any thoughts if this is going to cause me nightmares down the road?

Thanks!

      while (0==ch)
         {
         unsigned char control_kbd;
      
         ch = inportb (0x60);

         control_kbd = inportb (0x61);
         outportb (0x61, control_kbd | 0x80);
         outportb (0x61, control_kbd);
//         outportb (0x20, inportb (0x20));   // This line is now removed
and it works!
      
         if ( (ch!=AKEY) && (ch!=RKEY) && (ch!=IKEY) && (ch!=FKEY) )
            {
            ch=0;
            }
         }
