Am I doing something wrong? Is this new behaviour? I have been using such shortcuts for a decade now, and this seems to be a Lion-related issue.

Howdy,
You might need to make sure that System Preferences->Language & Text->Spelling is set to English(Aspell) rather than Automatic. Finally, you may (I still have it checked and I don't get those incredibly annoying automatic fixes) have to un-check Correct spelling automatically.
Good Luck,
