thanks for the replies and support :-)

I agree, I also felt it's unlikely to be busybox, but just can't think what else it would be - the last things I did before it started this behavior was install: busybox installer (and then run the installer), and android id changer. I put busybox in /system/xbin, whch is at the end of the path, so yes, it shouldn't be interfering with anything.

I did change the android id but then changed it back - I guess that might somehow be related but hard to see how.

anyway, got the golden update to work, finally. yay. so now just to re-upgrade to 2.2 and put back all the apps and settings I lost, and to try not to do this again - I was pretty happy with the state I had everything in (other than apparently having the same androidID as the phone I cloned market/framework from, and not properly syncing old gtalk threads)
