is is possible that the return scan code is something completely
unexpected, and that causes the problem?

One thing I have seen under W2K, is that it does not do a good job of
keeping the bios area shift flags consistent with the key strokes
passed to the application.

I found workarounds that usually worked, but in general I tend to use
the tools recompiled Win32 native (so haven't used the DOS ones as much).
