Just to clarify in case any readers didn't see my other post in the
thread:  the problem is fixed and it was simply due to some stale
generated files in my build environment.  Doh!  I should have
double-checked that I did a clean build in a new directory before
posting to the list.

It's not a pcb bug, but it certainly was a weird experience.
