Matthew,
following is what I get reported from "xev":

Pressing and releasing scroll-lock:

     root 0x44, subw 0x0, time 1057839, (-48,253), root:(696,272),
     state 0x0, keycode 78 (keysym 0xff14, Scroll_Lock), same_screen YES,
     XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
     XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
     XFilterEvent returns: False
