This is not a bug -- there is a problem with a few keys due to the fact that
the normal keyboard driver of the macintosh designates some of the keys as
double strike keys -- eg the option e is used for speciving accents and the
option n key is used for the spanish "tilde" or nenyae <-- english spelling.
