This is in version 5.2.0.562. (EDIT: Also present in 5.2.0.617)

I was trying to get more specific information to help diagnose the issue in this thread, when I discovered that pressing F7 does not actually show turn count at all. It is configured to do that in the settings, and ctrl+F7 in my own holds still shows variable behavior.

Do you have any duplicated keybindings? The updated control settings don't play well with those. So if you have two things on F7, one of them won't work.

(probably this should be ironed out somehow)

I don't have any that I'm aware of. Anyway, as I noted above, the ctrl+F7 binding to show variable changes in my own holds works normally.

EDIT: Okay, I actually looked in my settings. The only other thing F7 is bound to is "mirror room X", which only applies while editing a room. But I tried changing that setting anyway, and if I do, F7 shows turn count like it's supposed to. This didn't occur to me as a collision because (1) these are the default controls, and (2) they obviously apply to mutually exclusive situations.

At some point I changed some of the default bindings for 5.2 to not conflict, but if you have older bindings you get the problem.

Seeing if there's a way to break controls up into different contexts might be a good idea however.

F7 is working as intended for me in 5.2.0.700.
