Using PS2 with PIC it's fairly easy, max 10-15 lines of code, a decent Lookup table and away you go. The problem arise when you want emulate a PS/2 with a PIC on a PC. That's easy to send Keystroke... Emulate and perform the PC Boot sequence IS the 'tricky' part.
I have done enough to hate it now 
Forget SHiftin/Shiftout... must role your own 'SPI' routines. A logic analyzer comes pretty handy in this specific case. Pickit... yeah maybe, even if a bit limited in acquisition time. PoScope? Yeah, better.

It's not a bug, it's a random feature.
There's no problem, only learning opportunities.
