pst-xkey 1.2 to CTAN.
They have been installed in the directory
macros/generic/xkeyval
Thanks for the update.
Announcement text:
Don't forget to read the README on installing xkeyval in a (La)TeX distribution. Information about the updated xkeyval: 1) Added \disable at key 2) Added \define at cmdkey (command keys) 3) Changed xkvltxp.tex to xkvltxp.sty 4) Namechange: \XKV at ifku to \key at ifundefined 5) Simplified both the value saving and the pointer mechanism 6) Improved coding at several places 7) Package now uses eTeX if available 8) Removed optional existence checking from \define at key and friends 9) \presetkeys: made incremental 10) \XKV at makepf: protects internal macros. 11) Introduced optional global saving of macros produced by \savekeys and \presetkeys. 12) Added notation to \savekeys and \savevalue to instruct xkeyval to save values globally. Information about the updated pst-xkey: 1) Updated docs and code to match xkeyval 1.7

xkeyval – Extension of the keyval package
This package is an extension of the keyval package and offers additional macros for setting keys and declaring and setting class or package options. The package allows the programmer to specify a prefix to the name of the macros it defines for keys, and to define families of key definitions; these all help use in documents where several packages define their own sets of keys.
