Just to complete the circle, I did eventually fix this. I still don't know
what the problem was, but here is a fix.
I didn't mention originally, that my project and source tree are on a shared,
mounted file system. For kicks, I copied my entire tree (large) to a local
drive. There, I was able to open the project, and build successfully. When I
copied the entire tree back to the shared file system, everything was fine,
and I was able to use the project normally.
I still don't understand this, as I believe I removed and replaced all items
of possible hysteresis (the project .mcp file, the source files, the
MetroWerks installation, reboots of all machines involved). Maybe there was a
corrupted magic cookie in the Windows registry or something (though I would
have expected a re-install to fix that).
Anyway, I hope this is useful to a future archive searcher...
