In most present-day accents of English they're homophones, and it's not uncommon for people to accidentally mixing homophones up when typing quickly in a language they hear on a daily base. (When I went to Ireland, the frequency at which I made such brain farts in English increased by an order of magnitude within a few weeks.) OTOH, personally most of the times I realize that I've accidentally typed the wrong word within seconds of typing it, and much of the rest of the time I catch it while proof-reading myself.
