Shortly after posting this message, IceWM ceased to work as well.
Gnome wouldn't run either.  So I started to suspect that it might be a
problem with X, and ran 'rpm --verify XFree86'.  Sure enough,
(ignoring all the configuration files) there was a library whose
md5sum didn't check out.  I think it was
/usr/X11R6/lib/modules/libcfb16.a.  Freshening the XFree86 package
fixed the problem.

I don't know how the file became corrupted--perhaps it was bogons? ;)
Anyway, sorry for the wasted bandwidth...especially to the moderator
who had to bother with passing my large message.

Regards,
Ben
