I can now no longer reproduce the "weird" behavior that I was seeing earlier in the day.  So I suspect that what actually happened was that I somehow managed to kill the stream-flushing thread (I was using the IDE) earlier in my session without realizing it.

Confirmed.  I deliberately killed the "housekeeping" thread and I now see the same unusual behavior as before.

Now the mystery is how I lost that thread the first time.  I wasn't doing anything even remotely unusual.
