[plt-scheme] Lost my command-I in OSX 10.5 Leopard

This is just a hunch, but since this problem occurred just after you upgraded to Mac OS X 10.5.2 Leopard, I suspect that command-i may be being intercepted as some kind of special command by the operating system.

A few years ago, I had a mysterious problem in Mac OS X 10.2.8 Jaguar in which the ESC key was intercepted by the voice recognition system.

You may want to double-check all the applets in your System Preferences to ensure that command-i isn't being interrupted by the OS.  In particular, I would focus on Universal Access and, if you use it, Voice Recognition.
