It turns out that letting the system stand for ~4 hrs reproduced some

 Since a software update this morning it appears that both interfaces
are co-existing without problems. Re-checking the supply voltage
reveals 5.05 volts, 10 mV below the value seen earlier, measured on
the GPIO header.
 

I got sag when USB was drawing current I think.

That's not to claim the problem is resolved: It took about four hours
to misbehave in the previous instance, now it might merely take longer.
 

Fingers crossed.

Reminds me of that old BT advert where an old lady discovers her phone isn't working. Cut to engineers in vans climbing poles, remaking connections and so on, cut to old lady lifting the handset 'Oh, its fixed itself!'...
