I remember what the problem was.  CodeWarrior switches the foreground
process context when it stops the running program, so it gets the key
up events.  Supposedly the code is fine outside of the debugger.  What
SDL should do is reset the keyboard when it loses focus.  Could someone
with the problem watch the OS events that the program receives, and see
if there's a good place to insert that code?

See ya,
