OK, weirder yet!!!!
After all this screwing around, and I think this was the first time that I did a "stop", removed the log file so I could easily see the result, and then I issued a "start" on the
database, just for grins, I tried running the pg_basebackup command again. I pulled it from the shell's history and invoked it, and. It ran without a single problem. I'm guessing
now that something was incorrect in memory somewhere, and just reloading the pg_hba.conf wasn't fixing it.
I apologize to all for not thinking to issue a restart before this moment, but now I am a little worried that this might bite us in production.

I thought you might be correct, Tom, but I double-checked the postgresql.conf file and listen_addresses = "*". I had forgotten to look to see if netstat reported:
tcp 0 0 0.0.0.0:5432 0.0.0.0:* LISTEN
But even with that established, the pg_basebackup using:
/usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/pg_basebackup -D - -h 127.0.0.1 -Ft -z -c fast -l hourly.backup > backup_file.gz or
/usr/pgsql-9.3/bin/pg_basebackup -D - -h 127.0.0.1 -U postgres -Ft -z -c fast -l hourly.backup > backup_file.gz
are still failing with:
pg_basebackup: could not connect to server: FATAL: no pg_hba.conf entry for replication connection from host "127.0.0.1", user "postgres", SSL off
The line from the pg_hba.conf file currently reads:
host replication postgres 127.0.0.1/32 trust
I really don't see where the problem is, and I know I've done a reload after every change in the pg-hba.conf.
Everything that you've said looks fine, so the problem is somewhere you're
not looking :-(. At this point, I'd wonder if the pg_hba.conf file you're
changing is the same one the postmaster is reading. You might try
confirming that directly by inserting a syntactically-incorrect entry and
seeing if the postmaster bleats about it to the postmaster log when you
issue a reload.
