Re: [MiNT] _AKP cookie

According to the TOS developer notes vol vi, no.1 (April 1993), the _AKP cookie
(and the _IDT cookie) are new in MultiTOS and the Falcon030.  They are
installed with any system that has AES v3.3 and up.

This conflicts with Joska:

_AKP is available in all TOS-versions with cookiejars, i.e. from 1.06.
It is documented in the 1.06 release notes from Atari.

So I guess if XaAES is v3.3 compatible, it should install them (presumably
based on NVRAM contents).

Also, there is no information kept in the TT NVRAM re keyboard - the info on
language on a TT is taken from the os_conf header.

Under MiNT it's set via the keyboard.tbl-file (All TOS-versions).

Helmut, you can read the NVRAM on TTs and Falcons via the NVMaccess() system
call.

This exists only since TOS 3, what about the previous versions?
