Thanks for pointing out this file.
/* this table was taken from ecore_fb, is the default en layout */
"0x00", "0x00", "0x00", /**/"", "", "", NULL,/***/
"Escape", "Escape", "Escape", /**/"", "", "", "\x1b",/***/
"1", "exclam", "1", /**/"1", "!", "1", NULL,/***/
[...]
I changed the "Escape" line, adding the octal encoding for ESC:
"Escape", "Escape", "Escape", /**/"\033","\033","\033", "\x1b",/***/
recompiled, and now the escape key works fine in my fbcon.
Then re-mapped the CapsLk key to Control:
"Control_L", "Caps_Lock", "Caps_Lock", /**/"", "", "", NULL,/***/
which made CapsLk behave as a Control key. I'd like to make this key
also function as CapsLk when modified by Shift or Ctrl, but am not
finding a way to do this.
Also noticed Alt+Home wasn't bringing up command mode. Seems the
Alt key was behaving as a shift-modifier key...using `kbd-test` the
Alt-{Up,Down,Left,Right} keys reported: KEY_SR KEY_SF KEY_SLEFT
KEY_SRIGHT -- same as for Shift-{Up,Down,Left,Right}.
Took a look at ecore_fb_li.c and made changes like so:

Now Alt-Home brings up the command mode window, and `kbd-test` reports
kUP3 kDN3 kLFT3 kRIT3 for Alt-{Up,Down,Left,Right}.
