Thanks! I didn't think it was so simple, and I feel like a lunkhead for not thinking of that. I'm accustomed to being prompted for the user's password when I run su, even if it is blank (I've been spending way too much time on Mac OS X, I guess). I must have clobbered only the root password. Nobody else complained about being unable to login after the upgrade. Not sure how that happened since I was so careful, especially when it got to master.passwd.

You probably clobbered master.passwd when you mergemastered. In all
probability, root now has no password at all. Set one with passwd.
