The short story is: Tom's keyboard sends all that when he presses caps lock:
press: 0x3a 0xe0 0x66 repeat: 0x3a release: 0xba 0xe0 0xe6
0xe0 0x66 happens to be the "favorites" key on his keyboard with internet navigation keys. I thus believe there's a bug in his keyboard that needs to be filtered at the kernel level.
The long story can be read on http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=594089

Yes, as I said in a previous mail, squeeze Xorg now interprets the internet scancodes by default, while it wouldn't in lenny and previous, thus not showing the bug.
