I have this happening to me as well, and I'm running Arch Linux. It only starts
to happen when I'm in Wine, but continues even if I quit the application that I
am running via Wine.

I get the same problem as the OP. I'm running a game under Wine (Jedi Knight
II: Jedi Outcast, in my case). About 5-10 minutes into the game, whatever key
I'm pressing down at that particular moment gets repeated forever. When I exit
the game, the key is still pressed down, making it impossible to use a terminal
to debug it further. It also prevents me from switching to other terminals or
restarting X via Ctrl-alt-bksp. I've noticed that when I press Ctrl-Alt-F1, the
character 'P' is printed out among the repeated characters, so it may be
possible that the keyboard is getting remapped. Since I cannot use a terminal
when this problem is occurring, I made a script I could double click that kills
X. This fixes the problem until the game is run again.

wine-0.9.61
Kernel 2.6.24
