Follow-up for the archives, in case anyone else has a similar problem:

I found a winning combination. I set the "primary operating system" in
the SmartStart to "Other", built a kernel from brand new src that
*didn't* have IPSEC in it (not, FAST_IPSC, the older IPSEC).

That got me as far as the phantom USB controller hang which has been
discussed before. I then removed uhci from the kernel to fix that
particular problem and am now operating with a Dec 2 kernel and world
:-)

Thanks to those who gave me the hints needed to get this working,
