A little. It was helped by a solid 10 hours of sleep last night ;/

I am convinced there is a regression bug. The $64 question is "Where?"
I suspect a subtle dependency problem. Admittedly based on a personal 
design philosophy of how dependencies should be 
defined/specified/chosen/(better word?). I have a laptop which no longer 
serves its intended purpose. Once I've archived an image of its drive, 
I'll set it up to be a specialized test-bed multi-booting customized 
Debian 6, 8, and 9.
