In addition to the slipping, gear changes don't seem to happen with the same
tight feel that I had before.  Starts in 1st gear on a hill don't feel very
tight, either.  While driving, the clutch pedal freeplay *felt* to be in the
1/2 to 1 inch range, so I assumed that it was not correctable by adjusting.
Well, I went out with a ruler and measured almost 2 inches of freeplay!  So
I'll try adjusting it to see if that solves the problem.  Thanks all!
