Mark's comments got me thinking laterally. Perhaps there's an issue between X's software key repeat and the kernels. I turned the kernel repeat off by appending:

    atkbd.softrepeat=1

to the kernel boot parameters in grub.

It seems to help, as I have not had a repeat yet, but I'll keep testing and report the results back here later.
