I ran into the problem again under 2.6.0-test4-mm6 less than 45 minutes after
rebooting. I modprobed evdev.ko and have included the output (run through
hexdump -C) as [1].  I am keeping the original, unprocessed file incase you need
it.  To obtain the output, I pressed and immediately released the following keys
in the following order:
"q", "w", "e", "r", "t", "y", "u", "i", "o", "p", <l-shift>, <l-ctrl>, <l-alt>,
<space>, <r-alt>, <r-shift>, <enter>

I then removed evdev.ko, modprobed evbug.ko, and repeated the key sequence shown
above.  These resulted in [2] popping up in /var/log/kern.log

On my laptop keyboard, there is no right-control key.  The letters I pressed run
across the top of my keyboard from left to right (below the numbers).  To
prevent any confusion, the problem persisted after pressing all of these keys.

Sorry; this is a C+P of what I said in my original mail:
 	Most recently, this problem manifested itself by (as far as I can tell)
switching the keyboard keymap (this, occurred while I was in X, with Mozilla on
the current workspace).  After switching to vt2, I am now unable to return to X
(vt 7).  Pressing the numeral keys acts as if shift were held down while using
an odd alternate keymap (2 -> "^U", 4->"$", [7-0] -> ["{", "[", "]", "}", "\"],
e -> Euro symbol).  You can find the physical layout of my keyboard at [2]. 
While pressing the shift key, no characters are displayed on the console. 
Pressing <alt>+Fn or <ctrl>+<alt>+Fn to switch to another VT does not do
anything; the same occurs when trying <alt>+left/right
