with g-s-d running:

MappingNotify event, serial 49, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    request MappingKeyboard, first_keycode 8, count 248

MappingNotify event, serial 49, synthetic NO, window 0x0,
    request MappingKeyboard, first_keycode 8, count 247

(serial value is increasing every time it happens)

Killing the g-s-d always restarts it immediately, no chance to collect
the data.

Best wishes
