=== I certainly can do that, but am hoping to be able to manually fix the broken code. ===
Consider the time you’ve already spent trying to fix what’s going on with your new install and compare that with 20 minutes or so backing up database and server files, then dropping DB tables and deleting htaccess, reuploading WP files, going through the installation process, then creating a network and checking that everything’s going well with your installation before installing BuddyPress. I can only say that unless you’re seriously considering debugging the Enable Multisite plugin and reporting it, go with fresh install. Of course, it’s all up to you. Good luck.
