As it turns out, the Google Gmail client for Android has no such
issues.   Nor does the Google Calendar or Google Drive app, or Chrome
for Android.  I could put in my Google  account info once in a Google
Setting app, and the others got it from there.  The issue seemed to be
with the built in browser.  If have no idea wht it's issue was, but
since I won't use it, it largely doesn't matter.  (Unless/until I can
root the device, it doesn't seem possible to remove it.)
