The problem is still there on Mountain Lion with an American keyboard.
However, rebinding the kebyoard shortcut locally as you suggested does the 
trick - thanks for the tip!

Here is an ugly hack (based on the KeyEventDemo you provided) that would solve 
the problem:

KeyEvent e_ = null;
// pressing a key twice in 5 ms or less is probably impossible
final long eps = 5;

/** Handle the key pressed event from the text field. */
public void keyPressed(final KeyEvent e) {
        final boolean process = e_ == null || e.getKeyCode() != e_.getKeyCode()
                        || (e.getWhen() - e_.getWhen()) > eps;
        e_ = e;
        if (process) {
                displayInfo(e, "KEY PRESSED: ");
        }
}
