Reminds me of broken freeglut behavior, which is the main reason
why I use SDL. Don't mess with the operating system's repeat
rate or other settings. This is supposed to work correctly
out of the box.

FlightGear doesn't use SDL just because it's installed. You have to
make fgfs explicitly ask for it: $ ./configure --enable-sdl
You can check if your executable was linked against (free)glut or SDL:
$ ldd `which fgfs`|egrep "(glut|SDL)"
libSDL-1.2.so.0 => /usr/local/lib/libSDL-1.2.so.0 (0xb7eb0000)
If both glut and SDL show up here, then fgfs is still using SDL,
but something pulled the glut library in for no good reason. It's
rather a cosmetic "problem", but you can do this:
$ ./configure --enable-sdl LDFLAGS="$LDFLAGS -Wl,--as-needed"
m.
