Well I am using mostly emacs-multi-tty (22.0.50.1) on Debian
testing/unstable but I have also installed the default emacs21 package
that is in etch (or unstable). In that emacs "M-x version" gives
GNU Emacs 21.4.1 (i386-pc-linux-gnu, X toolkit, Xaw3d scroll bars)
of 2005-03-17 on trouble, modified by Debian
and when I give "C-h v dired-guess-shell-alist-user RET" it gives the
anwer I quoted above.
The answer to your problem might be in this part

This variable is not in the plain vanila dired, you have to use dired-x.
I have the following in my .emacs:
;; load the extended dired stuff.
;; (info "(dired-x)")
(require 'dired-x)
