To answer your question, Brian, yes, it appears this bug is still
present in Lucid.  I stumbled on this bug report after noticing the
problem (I also refuse to use the broken gnome-screensaver).  It looks
like ctrl-alt-l works correctly in Lucid, but the "Lock Screen" session
menu command does not.  I also tried your symlink approach (linking
gnome-screensaver-command to xscreensaver-command), and while "gnome-
screensaver-command -lock" now locks the screen, the session menu still
does not.  So, hopefully this info helps...in the meantime, I'll use the
ctrl-alt-l hotkey combo.
