  I reinstalled everything.  Though, now that you mention it, I installed the 
kernel and modules first and rebooted before installing the rest of the system, 
as is my normal course.  And, I think it *did* come up correctly networking and 
all in that period where it was running a 5.99.39 dhcpcd with a 5.99.45 kernel, 
and after installing the 5.99.45 dhcpcd I'm seeing this problem.

  That sounds even stranger...  :-/   But no, one of the first thoughts I had 
was to ls -l /sbin/dhcpcd.  Feb 2, just like the rest of the system.  But it's 
more than just dhcpcd.  ifconfig doesn't show ipv6 addresses on any interfaces, 
despite them being there and working:
