Matthew,
You are correct in your assessment. I think it is the 2nd time I am making
a wrong assumption that Flickr keeps its database up to date.
I need to take a mental note of it, and, more importantly, remember about
it. :-)
What I didn't know is that LR/PS, etc are actually writing the deciphered
lens information into the EXIF. I thought that the "Makernote" in the Exif
is always decoded by Flickr.

Larry's version of Lightroom is new enough to understand the 28-105
lens code, and the version he exports to Flickr has the human-readable
name somewhere in the metadata courtesy of Lightroom doing the lookup.
I also uploaded a JPG to flickr - it showed no lens data as well, not even
the lens id code.
Flickr's not keeping their Pentax lens ID database up-to-date enough
to understand the code in straight-out-of-camera files. They're
probably barely keeping the lights on there.
