Well as I said earlier, it's not difficult to convince me.

For ADB keyboards, you just have to enable dump_adb_input in
macintosh/adb.c and recompile your kernel.  If the output shows
that you do get the release from the hardware but not the kernel
then the issue is settled and we can find out what's going wrong.

If you suspect that the problem is further down in the system,
then you could also simply add printks to the relevant interrupt
handler (easy to find as they usually call adb_input) to see if
you're getting notified or not.  If you don't get an interrupt,
then you won't get any release events.
