Oddly it works now.  Go figure.  So, success with both Rosegarden and Muse,
for future reference.
The problem may have been that my /etc/profile file doesn't seem to do
anything.  My PATH never includes one of the things listed there (the X11
path), and OPCODEDIR and ...64 are never set, though they are exported from
/etc/profile.
Although "export LADSPA_PATH=." (no quotes) didn't work, no matter what
directory I checked from it listed $LADSPA_PATH as "."
Question for anyone knowledgeable on Linux - is it possible/safer to a)
change write permissions for /usr/lib/ladspa; or b) set LADSPA_PATH to
"/usr/lib/ladspa:/home/chuckk/ladspa"... does that make sense?  Rosegarden
can't see all its previous plugins now...
