thanks, i've looked back and found them, and on the basis of Lorn's
advice and Alex's followup, i've commented out various sections of my
Storage.conf file. when i restart X, qpe settles down almost instantly;
hopefully, it'll stay that way.
i've documented it at

for the invaluable advice and pointers.
