Thanks to Seth and all who replied.  I ended up making a gasket out of
coffee filter and putting it in underneath the original gasket, which was
obviously dried out and loose.  (The old gasket serves merely to help hold
the paper in, apparently. I any case, the fix works fine! I ran the Cube for
8+ hours with nary a reboot or spontaneous shutdown.

Again, thanks for all your help, Cuboids.
