Turns out amsfonts is installed as part of texlive-base. Which makes
me angrier about the lack of error messages - would it kill LaTeX to
have emitted an error message like 'you tried to use \Box, which is
not imported but is available in the amsfonts package!' (I did try the
uppercase version a few times; strangely, both \diamond and \Diamond
work, but \box doesn't...)

Adding the \usepackage fixed it, thanks.
