NT kernel keymap hack

Does anybody know of an NT kernel hack that switches the caps-lock key
with the control key (that lies under the shift key on most machines
these days)? I just can't adjust to the idea that the control key
should be so inaccessible. I'm an Emacs/bash bigot, and I like using
the control key a lot.
I've done this remapping in Linux, and I evidently *can* do it in
Win-95 thanks to a free downloadable kernel patch from Microsoft. But
I haven't found one for NT yet, and I'd sure like to. I write
to this list because it is read by people who expect rational
levels of functionality under NT.
