After getting into a fight with LaTeX over its stubborn behavior
regarding those page numbers, I dug into latex.tex, and stripped out
the head/foot code, thustly:
 
%Part 1:

\pagestyle{custom}


%Part 2:
%Here is where we create meaning for the "custom" pagestyle.

\makeatletter

\def\ps@custom{\let\@mkboth\@gobbletwo
	\def\@oddhead{\rightmark}
	\def\@oddfoot{%whatever you want at the bottom of the page
		}
	\def\@evenhead{\leftmark}
	\def\@evenfoot{%ditto. MyHeadings leaves these empty
		}
	\def\chaptermark##1{}%
	\def\sectionmark##1{}%
	\def\subsectionmark##1{}%
}

\makeatother

%Part 3:


\markboth{%spiffy stuff
}%following is what *I* used
{\vbox{%I'm not sure what boxes are required, so I make 1 vbox
      \hbox to \pagewidth{% that contained an hbox
         \it \protect\headtext \hfil\protect\thepage\/ %with the header
                                %text that changed every page, and the
                                %page number, >in italic<
      }%
      \vskip 2pt
      \hrule height\rulewidth  %then I ran a rule along the page
   }\hss                       %underneath the pagenumber and headtext
}

%ta da!


%I had fancy stuff in the feet as well.
