Hey, Daniel, me too.
Situation: linux console tty1, aptitude 0.4.5.3-1
uname -a: Linux speedy 2.6.21-2-686 #1 SMP Mon Jun 25 20:53:36 UTC 2007 i686
GNU/Linux
Aptitude locks after a few keystrokes - arrow keys, '[]', 'g', whatever.
Removing libc6-686 didn't help. Setting LANG and/or LC_ALL to 'C'
doesn't help. (My normal config in the root console is LANG and LC_ALL
unset).
Tried running 'aptitude upgrade'. While in the middle of reading the
changelogs, sometimes keystrokes (e.g. 'space' to go to the next page)
are ignored. Then dpkg-preconfigure ran whiptail, which didn't see any
keystrokes. A couple of rounds of 'killall whiptail' allowed the upgrade
to proceed.
I realize all this is probably not helpful...

The irony is that Bill Gates claims to be making a stable operating
system and Linus Torvalds claims to be trying to take over the
world. -- seen on the net
