Thanks!

Permit a newbie one other question: is there a simple way for me
to generate a patch file from what I've changed, to submit with the bug?

dangerous when a newbie helps a newbie :P
in all seriousness - I am pretty new to this myself, but I have submitted a patch (once and to a different project) - basically, you want to do a diff of the files or dirs (your modified versus the pristine from OE)
these diffs can then be applied by running 'patch'.

This page gives a reasonable overview of the process and I believe is what I referenced previously:

(I am copying the list on the off-chance this is helpful for others - actually probably wouldn't be a bad wiki add if it isn't already there)

I'm quite a newbie at this project however and have not a clue where to take things from there. It builds for me, at least
for the moment.

Post something someplace?  Different forum?  ??

submit a bug with the above details. the bugtracker is a much easier place to look than searching through mail archives if a dev has time to work on problems.
