I can confirm this behaviour and yes it is a BUG.
I'm running Hardy Heron, English on a Sony VAIO TX notebook.

Currently the Caps Lock light is on, but I'm typing as if it is off. If I turn it off then everything comes up in capitals.

The only thing I can think they may have caused it was that I was working on an Open Office document. I think I may have accidently typed a sentence that began something like "tHERE WAS", ie, I had accidently turned on caps lock. Open Office autocorrected this to "There was" and should have toggled my caps off... well it did toggle it off "logically", but the light was still on and it was inverted from there (I haven't restarted again yet).

I'll test this on another machine and will post if indeed this was the cause.
