I know that it isn't an electrical problem in the keyboard because it goes away when I kill the X server and restart it. This is a different bug from the Caps key being stuck, because the 2 key produces a "@" under this bug but it produced a "2" under the stuck-caps bug. The stuck shift key first happened to me when I created the /dev/bell device as per the installation instructions. (This may or may not be a coincidence.) Does anyone have any fixes or any similar experiences?
