Actually big thanks to your response; it prompted me to figure out how to
update my emacs, which I built from source a year or two ago when I wanted to
give native comp a whirl. It was a process, but was eventually successful.
The error was auto-reported when it popped up, and I decided to give the
inviting "report" button a whirl, though I've never thought of it before. I
don't even remember the context. But, per your advice, I have updated both
emacs and orgmode. Maybe it's gone. Thanks!
