It's flux, but thanks for the heads-up! I went over everything with liquid-flux-soaked solder-wick and a stereo microscope ... there were a ton of solder bridges before. Scrubbing the board in alcohol and then water gets 99% of the flux off, but turns the remainder white. Now I've scraped most of it out with a razor blade. Also, I think I have ninjas. Cooking this board let out an unusually large cloud of vile rosin smoke, and until I aired the house out, there were weird thumps and bumps coming from every corner but there was nothing there when I turned to look.
