Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gnome-games

System-version: Xubuntu 8.10 - Intrepid
Software-version: gnome-games 1:2.24.1.1-0ubuntu1

Reproduction:
0. I'm assuming you have installed the Gnome game Nibbles which comes by 
default with ubuntu.
1. Launch "Nibbles"
2. Chose in the menu-bar "Game" -> "New"
3. Point your worm horizontally to right
4. Press the right-arrow key and keep it pressed
5. Press the down-arrow key and keep it pressed
6. Notice that your worm has gone crazy
6.1 It's making a shape like an staircase
6.2 You have no control over the worm and have to wait until it crashes into 
something.
7. Notice that when you revive you have regained full control and you can start 
reproducing again from step 3.

Expected:
Step 0 to 5 the same.
Step 6. The worm doesn't go crazy. It just goes down.

Note:
I have tested some more combinations, and these were my results:
Crazy == Pointing upwards + pressing up + pressing left
Normal == Pointing upwards + pressing up + pressing right
Crazy == Pointing to the right + pressing right + pressing down
Normal == Pointing to the right + pressing right + pressing up
Normal == Pointing downwards + pressing down + pressing left
Normal == Pointing downwards + pressing down + pressing right
Normal == Pointing to the left + pressing left + pressing down
Normal == Pointing to the left + pressing left + pressing up
