OS X, 4.2, and the option key

Hey, all. I'm a huge jEdit fan, and have been using it for a while on my mac (running Panther, 10.3.3), but I've recently upgraded to the 4.2pres, only to find that jEdit no longer responds to shortcuts involving the option (alt) key, even simple ones built into the OS, like option-forward to go forward one word, or option-delete to delete word. I saw the changelog about remapping of keys on OS X, but is there any way to make these shortcuts work? They're standard in nigh every other application on OS X, and it's rather difficult to get used to working without them.
