I'm reading in keys, second and arrows, using ports and can't get the right
results.  While the arrows are held and second is pressed, the arrows keep
reporting being pressed.  But when you let up on second, the arrows also
report being let up, even though it's been pressed the entire time.  The
only call to _getkey is for exit, and removing it doesn't help.  I also
threw in a couple of nop's in-between out and in, but it didn't help.  Any
ideas?
