In my case, the item to be found had *no* properties before I added
the ID property, and wasn't in one of my "regular org files."  It
looked like this:

* Fixes to make post-hoc
** TODO Pause in animation of string toy
** TODO Stop with the swap hack in copy ctor of sparse
   The problem is that it means we end up with a broken invariant in
   the dtor

Oh, weird.  Now when I store a link the item automatically gets an
ID.  I guess I need to go back and RTFM because I obviously don't
understand how this stuff works.  I wonder why the first time I stored
a link I got something like the first link.

baffled-ly y'rs,
