I just got the same problem when upgrading to xserver-xorg-core 1.6rc1 and fixed it by adding Option "AutoAddDevices" "off" to Section "ServerFlags". Somehow, input-hotplug decided to add the keyboard twice (see the end of your log), so you get your configured keyboard plus these two auto-added ones. That's why each keypress is reported three times.
