I fixed the second fault.  Launching GnuPG Log Manager from Kmail/Tools/GnuPG 
Log Manager *without* Kleopatra running allows me to change the default log 
level back down to 'basic'.  Setting it to 'expert' or 'guru' causes crashes 
if Kleopatra is running - so something is definitely amiss.  Nevertheless, 
it's working again now without crashing, so I'm happy.

Any advice on importing the SSL certificate would be much appreciated.
