Problem solved: I filled the partition with /tmp on it, so nothing

Interesting. I hadn't considered that a full /tmp partition would do
it. I don't have it on a separate partition on any of the systems I
run, so this never came up. I'll be tucking that bit of info away for
future use.
/tmp can fill up even if it's on the root partition...of course,
if that happens, then your root partition is full, too.
Personally, I don't like ANY unnecessary file I/O on my root
partition, so /tmp always gets its own partition when I set
up a system (just eliminates one more source of possible
filesystem corruption on the root filesystem in event of
power failure or kernel glitch.
