I'm using sdthotjava on s297 build_21. hotjava does not accept
":", "^","@",keys in any input field with Japanese type-5 keyboard.

It is serious if J-type-5 users want to input URL or mail address.

It seems that it is a bug of keyListenter of JDK1.1.

I attached a sample program to reproduce the problem. Looking at keycode
through keyPressed method of KeyListener interface, when either of
":","^","@" is pressed, the keycode value is wrongly set to 0, while the
keychar value is correct. In addition, when looking through the old API keyDown(Event k), the keycode values are also correct. To reproduce
the latter case, comment out the two lines in PanelTest constructer.
