Okay. I think I've closed the loop, and have this updating successfully,
if not necessarily easily.

Now the tricky part: I checked out a new "work" branch, and deleted
everything in the working copy. Then, 4 steps out of the howto,
adjusted to pull the particular branch from the current repository
(instead of an outside one):
git remote add -t dojo -f dojo ./
git merge -s ours --no-commit dojo-trunk
git read-tree --prefix=dojo/ -u dojo-trunk
git commit -m "merge dojo into subdirectory"
... since I added the remotes as svn-remote sections directly in
git-config, I skipped that first line.
To update, we need a local branch for each submodule:
git checkout -b dojo dojo-trunk <- create local branch and switch to it
(only create it the first time through)
git svn rebase dojo-trunk <- do this to update each local branch from
the remote svn repository version--must have corresponding branch
checked out.
... now that we've merged the remote changes to a local branch, we can
update our work branch from each module's branch:
git checkout work
git pull -s subtree ./ dojo
git pull -s subtree ./ dijit
....
