That was the problem.  I was using 'fixplain', which, uh, only fixes plain
files.  I changed it to fixall, and I still get a notice that the
directory is ignored, but it isn't actually ignored (strangely).

The documentation specifically mentions all three types of fixing, but
doesn't describe them; I hadn't noticed the 'fixdirs' option, so I
couldn't think of the difference between 'fixall' and 'fixplain', and I
didn't think to try it.

Looks like it's all working now.

Thanks.
