Thanks, Pete.  

The correct configuration was in firewalld.conf.rpmnew.  It had lots of
new stuff so I put it in use.  I guess I installed an update without
paying attention to what it did.  It doesn't seem like the packaging
needs fixing.  Hopefully anybody else that somehow ends up at the same
place I got will find this post and know how to fix it.

Thanks again for your attention.

Bill
