I see it happen on a Mac Pro. I've seen it happen when X11 (2.3.2.1)
is the foreground app and when it is not, but it is most obvious when
X11 is the foreground app. In my case, the timing appears to be about
once per hour, but that timing resets whenever you logout of the
console or reboot. Thus far, I haven't been able to find anything in
any logs that would help to figure out what is going on (yes, I do use
iCal and I do know that processes that fire (iCal related or not) that
use AppleScript may steal focus for an instance).

There is a well known issue with MacBook Pros (circa early 2007) in
that they lose keystrokes. Apple even released a fix for it after
volumes of complaints - it helped a little, but the issue still
persists. I've convinced myself it's a design flaw they can't fully
remedy. So the big question is - are you using a MacBook Pro of that
vintage?

It happens to me as well... even when X11 isn't running, so as much
as I'd like to figure it out, it's not an X11 issue...

I'm still seeing the problem that every so often X11 drops keyboard
focus and regains it after a second or so. (I think that iCal is
the culprit, although there may be others --- one thing I have seen
repeatedly is that these events happen exactly one minute before an
iCal alarm is due to pop up.) Up to now, that just meant that a
couple
of keystrokes went into the aether.
I see the same thing happen -- X11 loses focus for a split second
and keystrokes get lost. It happens pretty regularly to me, but
I doesn't seem to be related to an iCal alarm as far as I can tell.
I'm afraid I haven't tried rc5.
