Embarrassed as I am to say it, it turns out that I somehow had an old version of randrproto installed (the new versions were getting installed to the wrong place, although it wasn't obvious because of the paths involved). Once I got that straightened out, xrandr started working again. Sorry to bother the list over such an inane problem. Thanks, anyways, for the assistance.
