Idiot Savant [General]
You're a know-nothing know-it-all.
Prerequisites
Int 9 or less.
Benefit
When calculating your skill points or making Intelligence-based skill checks, your Int penalty is instead considered an Int bonus.
Add your Int penalty as a bonus on all non-Intelligence-based skill checks.
Special
A fighter may select Idiot Savant as one of her fighter bonus feats.
Basically spending a feat to turn a dump stat into something useful. The bonus on non-Intelligence-based skill checks may be a bit much, but it struck me as flavourful.
ORRRRRR... your Int penalty is instead an Int bonus for skill checks and Intelligence checks, and for calculating skill points at 1st level.
