Right after sending this email it occurred to me that I could run
strings on the undeleted file and see if anything interesting showed up.
 Sure enough right at the very beginning of the file is what looks like
a bash history file. If it weren't for bad luck I would have no luck at all!

So it looks like it comes down to my ancient backup from DVD. Strings on
that file shows nothing but apparent randomness, not that I would expect
anything else because I am sure the backup is good. So I am really
scratching my head over why it won't mount.
