This is not a bug, it's a change of meaning ;)
You probably mappeed "go left one desktop" to ctrl-alt-left, and "go
right one desktop" to ctrl-alt-right, because those were the only
keymappable functions at the time you did the configuration, and because
they worked the way you wanted.
Now, kde2.1 has introduced new mappable functions: "go up one desktop",
"go down one desktop" (which now work in the "big panel mode", together
with the function that already were there). The functions that you want
are now called "go to previous desktop" and "go to next desktop".
So just go into the key configurator, and map ctrl-alt-left/right to
the previous/next desktop functions.
(note that maybe the exact function names are different, I'm using a
german kde and translated the german strings back to english).
