Bug Description

EDITION:
Julia amd64

CONFIGURATION:
VMware Fusion 3.x in OS X

OBSERVED BEHAVIOR:
At random intervals, the last key stroke is automatically repeated. Sometimes, I have seen as many as 7 repetitions.

EXPECTED BEHAVIOR:
A key stroke should be registered exactly once.

ADDITIONAL NOTES:
I have a Windows 7 VMware image in the same Mac. I have not noticed this issue therein. Similarly, I have not noticed this issue in the host OS X itself.

Hi, thank you for reporting this issue!

Due to the nature of virtualisation it will
be rather difficult to isolate this bug.
Is there any way you could try to
recreate this running the livecd?

Thanks!
