yep, once i found 'em all, that seems to have done it.  thanks, to you
and to Pete.

(my shell .rc files were copied over from my previous (Windows)
machine, which had a similar issue for which creating those variables
was the suggested solution. . . which, as you can imagine, didn't work
too well.  i never figured out what the actual problem was, but seeing
as i fully intend to wipe the drive and put a new system on it as soon
as i get a few more tuits of the proper geometry, i don't much care
anymore, either.)
