Yes, same problem for me on a 5000/240. 

I find after negotiating xdm, using 'xset r off' (turn key repeat off)
solves the key problem within X (Can't remember if this fixes the
observed behaviour outside of X though ).

There is some interaction with the X screen blanker too: 'xset s off'
fixes that one.

Hoping for a real fix real soon!

cheers,
Chris.
