The problem is that system hooks don't work so well in builtin dlls
because the load address is not always aligned. For the low-level
keyboard and mouse hooks it shouldn't matter because they should
always be called in the context of the process that set the hook, but
this is not implemented yet. There's the same problem with the
journalling hooks, I'm working on it.

We should definitely do that in any case. Having the keyboard hook set
even when not needed will be a serious performance hit.
