Sounds like the video card went into power save. Pressing a shift key

I would like to know if anyone else has experienced this or, if a PR is
necessary against the Xorg radeon driver.
It's not clear whether you were running in the console or X. If X wasn't
even installed yet, the radeon driver could not have been at fault.
Yes, Xorg was running with gdm and gnome2. I was building packages from
ports in a gterm.
No, no combination of Shift-Fn or <Meta-key>-Fn did anything. The keyboard
was active as the Caps-Lock and Num-Lock lights worked.
The monitor power save features are disabled.
Maybe xscreensaver? Whatever's causing it, it's not a common problem.
I wonder if the Linux Catalyst Control Center app. from ATI would work under
VirtualBox-OSE?
No, the hardware is virtualized to the VM.
