This is really strange....

It seems that 

 1) HalfLife does not use DInput as I do not see any dinput messages in your
    trace (you sure you had +dinput in your debugmsg command :-) ? )

 2) that in the Desktop log, the events are like that when auto-repeat is on :

KeyPress
(...)
KeyRelease
KeyPress
(...)
KeyRelease
KeyPress
(...)

(this is the 'standard' X way of handling auto-repeat)

   Whereas in the managed mode, one has :

KeyPress
(...)
KeyPress
(...)
KeyPress
(...)
KeyPress
(...)
KeyRelease

I will try to find time to investigate the difference in the two code path (and
also to check how Windows handle auto-repeat).

Anyway, one easy way to fix this would be to do an 'xset r off' before starting
Wine in Desktop mode.
