It turns out that it was a PEBKAC issue. The little GUI utility
supplied by Private Internet Access has a setting for a 'kill switch,'
which was turned on. This is a safety device that kills your internet
completely if the VPN is disconnected.

Sorry for all the confusion. It's amazing how much easier it is to
solve problems after a night's sleep. And I learned a few things, too.
