My layout file had
\makeevenhead{cleared}{}{}{}
\makeoddhead{cleared}{}{}{}
\makeevenfoot{cleared}{}{\thepage}{}
\makeoddfoot{cleared}{}{\thepage}{}
I commented those out, the problem went away, and I couldn't see any
side effects. Memoir docs are so sparse I don't know what the purpose
of those four lines were, but everything appears OK now.
Thanks
