Default enable MouseKeys without xkbset

In order to use Apple/Command keys as mouse keys on Mac hardware I remapped them with xmodmap and enabled with 'xkbset -m'.
However, xkbset isn't in OpenBSD's base. I don't like my .xsession to depend on external tools.

Is there any tool included in OpenBSD that enables mouse keys as 'xkbset -m' does?

What about setxkbmap(1)?
Code:
DESCRIPTION
       The setxkbmap command maps the keyboard to use the layout determined by
       the options specified on the command line.

       An XKB keymap is constructed from a number of components which are
       compiled only as needed.  The source for all of the components can be
       found in /usr/X11R6/share/X11/xkb.

Thanks.
Code:
setxkbmap -option keypad:pointerkeys
seems to be it.
(Didn't test it though since I'm currently not on the affected device)
