Umm.... can you try patching keymap.sh and console-screen.sh with:

/etc/init.d/keymap.sh
#!/bin/sh
pidof splashy > /dev/null && touch
/lib/init/rw/splashy/splashy-stopped-keymap && exit 0

/etc/init.d/console-screen.sh
#!/bin/sh
pidof splashy > /dev/null && touch
/lib/init/rw/splashy/splashy-stopped-console-screen && exit 0

In other words, do not even run keymap.sh or console-screen.sh if
splashy is running. Splashy will restart those services after it
finishes.

Please report back your findings.
