Thank you for your help Flavio!

fsck was fine, but see my other post about files in /usr/x86_84-unknown-linux-
gnu and /usr/x86_84-unknown-linux-uclibc??

Yep, they're gone... WTF? How can I reinstall them? Hardly seems like a 
problem to warrant a wipe-and-reinstall, but at least I have all the current 
packages if that becomes necessary. I bet it was gnome that did it :p. I think 
I have another x86_64 Arch install for my laptop, maybe I could pull the 
missing files from there. But how to tell what I need to copy?
