The use of the accesskeys under Firefox 2 has been changed. Now you have to press alt-shift-l (e.g. for watchlist) instead of alt-l. Please update the tooltips for Firefox 2 to show alt-shift.
See related bug 5376 too.
It's irritating that we can't pull this preference directly from somewhere, since this is user-configurable, and also we'll have to update this for presumably every future version of Firefox (formerly all Gecko browsers were the same). But c'est la vie, I suppose. Fixed in r17136.
Sorry to say, but r17136 didn't work :-( Firefox 2 shows still <alt-x>. Maybe an extract of the access log of my private website may help: Firefox 1.5.0.7: [23/Oct/2006:10:54:03 +0200] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 2110 www.spekking.de "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.0.7) Gecko/20060909 Firefox/1.5.0.7" "-" Firefox 2 RC3: [23/Oct/2006:10:46:09 +0200] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 2110 www.spekking.de "-" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20061010 Firefox/2.0" "-" Internet Explorer 7: [23/Oct/2006:10:50:10 +0200] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 2110 www.spekking.de "-" "Mozilla/4.0 (compatible; MSIE 7.0; Windows NT 5.1; .NET CLR 1.1.4322; .NET CLR 2.0.50727)" "-"

Corrected in r17236.
The tooltips now display correctly for the toolbar and links at the top of the page, but when editing the tooltip for "Save page" is still Alt-S when it should be shift-alt-s. This is true

Fixed for *nix in r17294.
