If I am not terribly mistaken, even
   static const volatile unsigned char far * const far KeyboardStatus;
is allowed. :-)
It is a constant pointer (possibly located outside the near data segment) 
pointing to an unsigned (it contains flags) char (possibly located etc.) that 
can be changed by something or someone outside the scope of the program but 
not by the program through this pointer.
