I am also experiencing this bug. And weirdly enough, I didn't have this problem 
before.
I'm not quite sure what the problem is, I am using KDE, and the only thing that 
I have done that seems peculiar is manually compiling and installing Firefox 
3.5, but this bug does not only happen in Firefox.

I find that pressing (or rather, smashing) on the ctrl or shift keys fixes the 
problem..for the while. I have switched keyboards and yet the problem occures. 
I do have this in my dmesg:
[  276.254455] atkbd.c: Unknown key released (translated set 2, code 0x9f on 
isa0060/serio0).
[  276.254457] atkbd.c: Use 'setkeycodes e01f <keycode>' to make it known.

And many more of those. Again, this only just recently began happening.
