But I'm only pressing a maximum of _two_ keys "cd" and it's coming out as
"cdcd".

It's a real pain cause I do "cd" a lot.

I'm sure they are getting pressed somewhat at the same time cause I do it
so fast but still it shouldn't be glitching on that.

Also, I didn't see this problem in the 2.2.6.

Using a more current stack (2.3.40) I can use up to 6 keys (ie press 'em
one after another and the last pressed one works) and the 7th is ignored.
Hmm, I also noticed that some combinations of keys will glitch on the
3rd keystroke.  Thinking about back when I learned about low-level
keyboard stuff, I think that some keyboards can only handle a certain
number of keys down or they report a "too many keys" code.  Perhaps this
code is not being handled correctly?  Or, maybe I'm just on crack.  (Hard
to say considering the way my day is going today)

You are probably hitting three keys:  "cd<space>"  Anyway, this problem
occurs at the console as well as in X, however, strangely it is much worse
at the console.
