Patch for xte.c to statisfy compilation warnings
In several instances, the pointer returned by the xcb_key_symbols_get_keycode
function is not dereferenced, but rather used directly as the keycode value. I
have attached a quick fix dereferencing the few cases I discovered. I suspect
that there remain memory leaks related to these calls, since it appears the
pointers were treated as keycode values rather than instances of allocated
memory -- and thus there may have been no attempt to free the respective
memory.</pre>
