Well, this is interesting!

Yes, I do have such a file (that is, a "KeyBindings.dict" file in ~/ 
Library/Application Support/TextMate.  I don't remember putting it  
there... I suppose I was experimenting.  ;)

However, it was empty.  That is, it only contained

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
    <!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple Computer//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN"  
"http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
    <plist version="1.0">
    <dict/>
    </plist>


BUT!  when I removed it, ^r then worked in TextMate.  That seems  
odd.  If the keybinding wasn't explicitly overridden, why did it not  
work?

(I was also hoping I might get back my control + escape keyboard  
shortcut too, but no luck.  It's still missing in action.)

For that matter, ⌥⌘` (option + command + backtick) which is  
supposed to "cycle between drawer and main window" only produces a  
beep for me.

Small problems, but baffling.
