r181 Ctrl key mappings no longer work like they did on r180 (r180 fresh install on new MBP)

Steps to reproduce

Enter key strokes Ctrl+5 while in Normal or Insert mode.

Using simple macOS 15.1.1 Shortcuts App's "Text Action" mapped to Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Services > Shortcuts: ^5 (Control 5) or ^U (Control u) or Control "other key".

Using native macOS Shortcuts App for text insertion & key mapping is a low latency, low maintenance, low overhead & low cost, solution compaired to TextExpander, Espanso or other. The additional capabilities of something like Jenkins is not needed. I use this is MarkDown documents & also source code.

Expected behaviour

Clipboard text is "pasted" into the active MacVim window.

Given a patch may take a while, what other options do I have? I use this capability 100's of times a day.
Can I mod .vimrc to mitigate? (preferred solution pre patch)
Can I revert to r180 to mitigate?

Any help is much appreciated.

Version of Vim and architecture

Vim version 9.1.1128

Environment

MBP 14" M4 Nov 2024 running macOS 15.1.1
Terminal > Default macOS, Version 2.14 (455)
Value of $Term > xterm-256color
Shell > Default macOS, zsh 5.9 (arm64-apple-darwin24.0)

macOS 15.1.1 Shortcuts App's "Text" Action mapped to Settings > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts > Services > Shortcuts: ^5 (Control 5) or ^U (Control u) or Control "other key".
The MdH5 (MarkDown Header 5) Shortcut (^5) simply inserts text & ToD like, "##### @ 15:13 ".
This works on this GitHub "issue" form, Apple Apps & in Terminal VIM v9.1.1128.
Other Ctrl key mapping do similar or like ^U run AppleScripts via Shortcuts App's "Run AppleScript" Action like inserting browser URL & web page title e.g., "[] [Issues ยท macvim-dev/macvim] [] (https://github.com/macvim-dev/ macvim/issues)."
