Jay Flory, your information was the key! I removed the -116 kernel and reinstalled it, and the graphics are fine now. It looks like this was indeed due to a timing problem between when my system got the gcc update and the kernel update. It appears that I'll have to reinstall virtualbox as well.

Jay Flory, that's important information and sounds like it can lead those of us affected to a solution.

Mythological, you have to fix the system to the point that you can install packages. I am not sure you are that point yet from your description.
