We play a version of Meckwell Lite where a 1♥ response to 1♣ shows 8-11 points and denies 5♠. How should we handle a hand with 8-11 points, 6♥, and 5♠?

Agree with 1S. Otherwise at best you respond 1H and then 2H and then 3S to show 4S/5H.

Bidding 1♥ guarantees no 5♠.
This is taken advantage by later bidding so cant lie about this is absolute rule.
