Thanks to Wallace, Arden, and Eric who answered.  I spent the day off
today working on the car.  I discovered that the cable that actuates
the temperature flaps had popped off at the flap end.  (It may have done
this while I was playing with it; if so, then the flap was probably stuck
internally; it seemed to let go with a pop the first time I moved it by
hand.)  The motor WAS moving before though, so I don't know exactly
what happened first.  I didn't discover this the first time since I didn't
realize there was a temp control flap in addition to the heater control
valve.

Regarding my leaky blue vacuum line... I removed the servo end and plugged
it and it still won't hold a vacuum, so it appears to be the line and not
the servo that's leaking.  However I couldn't see/hear any obvious leaks.
Do you have to replace that whole "harness", or can you replace individual
lines?  (The connectors appear to be glued to the line?)  (This is one of
the lines in the connector that plugs in to the programmer.)
