Thank you!  I will indeed try reporting it.  But - and here I might need
a lesson in how Qt works - how are threads involved in my example?  I
had thought that setting a timer scheduled an event to happen in the
main exec() thread, not over in another thread.  If something I am doing
is creating additional threads, then I'll rearrange my program to
prevent it, since Qt explicitly says that all widget operations have to
be invoked from the main application thread.
