I've been having the "Sticky" shift problem, too;
however, I'm not using BC++,
  and    I'm not using QEMM.

It seemed to start when I upgraded to MS-DOS version 5.0 (as did losing input
characters on the serial ports).  However, it could be related to use of an
extended memory manager, since that was when I started using EMM386, as well.
Any suggestions?
