I suspect ir-keytable is segfaulting in the code that reads the file; would
you be able to share the keymap.txt file please? That way I can see if I
can reproduce the problem.

Parsing of the keymap is done in C which can be prone to these sorts of
problems.

This would have to be done a in debug build.
