First off, thanks for the replies. Now to address those replies:

I'm beginning to suspect the problem is related to Windows 7. Does
any one
running Vista or Windows 7 have this problem?

Sticky keys are off.

No, it completely ignores "C-)". For example the key sequence:
"C-h k C-) g" results in "C-h k g". Emacs describes the `self-insert-
command'
because that's what 'g' does.

Yes, "emacs -Q" also ignores "C-)". I'm hesitant to file a bug report
because I
think I might have done something silly on my system. I'd like to
first see if
"C-)" is recognized in another application. Are there any Windows
applications
to show keypresses?
> What does that help say?
It shows the help for `paredit-forward-slurp-sexp', which is what I
expect.
