Answering my own mail, it's a slow day in ZopeLand.

Basically, the Data.fs file was stuffed. I couldn't use Undo or add 
any other objects. I had to replace it with the Data.fs file I had 
(fortuitously!!) saved from the night before.

Warning to others: check your quota on accounts that you run Zope 
under. It seems there's no way to recover from this situation, other 
than to use a backup (if you've got one).
