Using snippet #25 on Eclipse-GTK-I20030924 (GNOME), do the following:

1.) Press and hold 'Shift'
2.) Press and release 'Alt'
3.) Release 'Shift'


OBSERVED RESULTS:
DOWN: stateMask=0x0, keyCode=0x20000, character=0x0 '\0'
DOWN: stateMask=0x20000 SHIFT, keyCode=0x0, character=0x0 '\0'
UP  : stateMask=0x30000 ALT SHIFT, keyCode=0x0, character=0x0 '\0'
UP  : stateMask=0x20000 SHIFT, keyCode=0x20000, character=0x0 '\0'

DESIRED RESULTS:
keyCode=0x10000 on the second key down.
