My (getting elderly now) lumix lx3 pocket camera does barrel distortion
correction in-camera for JPEG files. I've never tried comparing it to
RAW output, and clearly this approach wouldn't work for cameras that
take generic lenses.

Apparently some Nikon DSLRs can do it, but only with Nikkor lenses:

The process sacrifices some sharpness, crops the image somewhat, and doesn't necessarily do as good a job as outside-the-camera software processing does.

I'd rather keep the sharpness and full image and do corrections outside the camera. But I never shoot JPG, just RAW.
