It gets weirder. Last night I gave up and put in a regex on $wgTitle-
getText() to temporarily restrict CSS.php. Today, I get up, remove
that patch, reload, to continue working on the bug....and things are back to normal. No weird behavior to debug. I can only guess that something cleared some part of some cache somewhere... possibly due to google hitting the wiki and running jobs???
I know I wasn't hallucinating the odd behavior, since my whole group was affected by it.

I did find that the CSS.php extension code was being called in bracesubstitution, which was iterating over lots of pieces that seemed to have no relation to the text on the page being displayed. Rather, they seemed to be chunks of templates from all sorts of other pages. And this is happening on a page that contains no braced templates. We do use templates enthusiastically on other pages... those are what I'm seeing.
Since the CSS.php call on other pages is in {{#css csspagename.css}}, this seems to be leaking into the Sandbox page on the one wiki but not the other. The major difference between the wikis is that the misbehaving one has many many more pages using hundreds of template insertions. How that would affect things I still don't understand.
I'll keep digging...
