Of course I tried everything with underscores too... :o)

Sure. The changelog doesn't seem to contain anything relating to this,
and the documentation snippet you mentioned remained unchanged so far. I
think you can try whether there was a change with the s_client command.
For me, with openssl 0.9.8, it says:

tiefnig@orion:~$ openssl s_client -cipher RSA-AES256
error setting cipher list
tiefnig@orion:~$ openssl s_client -cipher DHE-RSA-AES256-SHA
connect: Connection refused

But also:

tiefnig@orion:~$ openssl s_client -cipher RSA
connect: Connection refused
tiefnig@orion:~$ openssl s_client -cipher SHA
connect: Connection refused
tiefnig@orion:~$ openssl s_client -cipher AES256-SHA
connect: Connection refused
