(adding to my original post)
More information that I didn't think of before, but now comes to mind as relevant...
Here is the sequence of things I did this morning:

1. I powered up at about 8am this morning.
2. An automated rkhunter scan ran at about 8:15am.
3. I launched firefox as a common user at about the same time.
4. At about 10am, I logged out as a common user (I had already quit firefox some 30 minutes earlier) and logged in as root.
5. I did a manual rkhunter scan; no warnings.
6. I did my weekly patches.
7. I re-booted.
8. I ran another manual rkhunter scan; no warnings not related to the patching. 9. I did a manual rkhunter --propupd to take care of the patch-replated warnings.
10. I ran another manual rkhunter scan; no warnings.
11. I checked root e-mail (using mailx), and found from rkhunter the message containing the warning that I put in the original post.

This does seem to answer one of sixpack13's questions:
> - if it survives a reboot,
The rkhunter warning of concern did not recur after the re-boot.

I did a bunch of internet searching regarding zaRwT.KiT; nothing that seems to me to be useful so far.  I'll do more and reply to sixpack13 when done.
