Ah, I will try to experiment with the wscons settings you suggested:

wsconsctl keyboard.repeat.del1=1024
wsconsctl keyboard.repeat.deln=1024

What I ended up doing was attaching an external USB keyboard and mouse,
and now the laptop is usable, but it's obviously not ideal to have to
carry an external usb keyboard.
