You're welcome.  Happy to share a light-bulb moment.  I was actually
doing something *completely* unrelated and reading the output of df on
one of my systems when I went "hey, /dev and /dev/shm have 2.8 GB of
free space, and almost none of it is used, and those are RAM
filesystems..." so I tried putting the force-reboot program there and
seeing if it worked.  :)
