This is a well-known problem.  It stems from this:
<http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK_FAQ#How_
to_get_keyboard_events_working_on_Mac_OS_X_.3F>

It has nothing to do with Intel Macs, you would see the same problem on
PowerPC also.  There is a bug for this problem:
<http://www.vtk.org/Bug/bug.php?op=show&bugid=2025>

Please vote for the bug.  :)
