Thanks Gleb.  I'd forgotten about that option. 

To others who try the same thing - make sure you have enough space in your 
TMPDIR or set
TMPDIR/--tmpdir to a place where you have sufficient space.  I started the 
REPAIR, which ran
for a while, then stopped and appeared to be idling.  It took me a few hours 
before I checked
the mysqld.log and found out that it had run out of space in /tmp and was 
waiting for some to
be cleared up.
