Initial Comment:
Current ScummVM SVN version

This may be partly an SDL problem (Debian 1.2.9)
packages, but here's what's happening to me. In the
GUI, I try to enter a ! in an input field.

Sometimes, I only get a key down event for the shift
key, not for the ! key. I have no idea why.

Assuming I do get key down events for both keys, I
first get one for the Shift key (keycode 304) and one
for the ! key (keycode 33). So far, so good.

If I release the ! key before the Shift key, I get a
key up events for keycodes 33 and 304, in that order.
That's fine.

If I release the Shift key before the ! key, I only get
a key up event for the Shift key, keycode 304.

Since the GUI thinks the ! is still held down, it will
begin repeating.
