yes.

insofar as it executes the command &&ed after it, yes. but it doesn't
set the rate when called in .xsession.
> xset in .xsession, and sourced from the console works?
see above -- same problems.
> xset in .xsession during session start works?
see problems above -- &&ed echo command just gets stuck into
~/.xsession-errors, but it doesn't set the keyboard rate.
> in general, what's .xsession-errors say?
a lot of crap. having rm'd the entire file, running .xsession creates
the following ~/.xsession-errors file:
orange:~> cat .xsession-errors
keyboard rate set
xscreensaver-command: throttled.
Identity added: /home/nori/.ssh/identity (nori@orange)
/usr/bin/WindowMaker warning: WMRootMenu:invalid kbd shortcut
specification "Control+Meta+Backslash" for entry exit
i've got the lines that should be setting the keyboard rate first, but
even though they seem to be working, the passphrase that i enter right
after it is sensitive to aaaaa's and ssssss's, obviously *not* having
set the keyboard rate.
~/.xsession looks like the following, if that helps at all:
orange:~> cat .xsession
#!/bin/sh
xset r rate 255 80 && echo "keyboard rate set"
/usr/X11R6/bin/xset b 0 &
/usr/X11R6/bin/xset r rate 100 255 &
/usr/bin/X11/xrmdb &
test -f ~/.Xdefaults && /usr/X11R6/bin/xrdb ~/.Xdefaults
test -f ~/.Xresources && /usr/X11R6/bin/xrdb ~/.Xresources
/usr/bin/xscreensaver &
(sleep 5 && /usr/bin/xscreensaver-command -throttle) &
/usr/bin/ssh-agent ~/bin/x-ssh-clients
/usr/bin/X11/xset +fp $HOME/lib/fonts
xset fp rehash
