Thanks to rdieter on irc today, I just tested with xev on my laptop and
discovered that, while Alt and Shift behave normally, Alt-Shift is
processed as "ISO_Next_Group". Knowing that in turn led me to this bug
report containing a solution:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=864785
I initially installed a pre-beta version of F18 on this laptop, so I guess
that's how things got set up this way in the first place.

Update: I just also noticed that Okular uses
"alt-shift-{left,right}" as
navigation shortcuts, and those also don't seem to be working -- as far as
I can tell, Okular is now treating "alt-shift-left" the same as just plain
"left".
I suppose I should bugzilla this, but against what? :)
