Damn it, I think that was it.  I did a framework build in there and
``make distclean`` didn't clean up all the Mac-related files (which
should get fixed at some point), so I nuked the directory (which
itself had permission stuff that required sudo) and did a fresh
checkout.  Must have accidentally done a read-only checkout.

Sorry for the false alarm.
