jdk-1.5.0p2_5
FreeBSD 6.1-Prerrelease #1

Problem:
Service keys and key sequenses like Backspace, Tab, Del, Space, Alt+ ,
Ctrl+ ...  don't work in AWT or SWING applications.

Solution:
The problem is caused by NumLock when it's turned on.

The problem appears only in native jdk1.5.0.   linux-sun-jdk1.5.0
doesn't have a problem.
