The bug is still present in trunk. I stepped on it while looking at
the AltGr support (regarding the SynEdit column-mode discussion for
which a follow-up is still in my drafts :-$ ).
The LCL use a hook to peek into key messages and "caches" ShiftState,
it's in my to-do to look at using gdk_event_get_state() or
gdk_window_get_pointer() instead...
