I am not familiar with the guts of GTK, but I have been basing the mac GUI
code on the GTK GUI code.  The problem may be in the subroutine
static gint keyboard_handler(GtkWidget *widget, GdkEventKey *event)
in clinet/gui-gtk/

prehaps, the lines like
    case GDK_KP_Up
should be
    case GDK_Up

Also, the number keys on the top of the keyboard are paired 1:1 with the
number keys on the key pad, sou you don't need to change modes on the
keyboard.
