Okay, now I really must be hallucinating!

xsitian's suggestion reminded me to poke around the settings within SketchUp
itself. In Window > System Preferences > Drawing > Click Style, I see three
options in SketchUp 8; the default selection in my install was "Auto detect". I
changed it to "Click-drag-release" and the one-mouse-event-behind appears to
have disappeared! I also changed it to "Click-move-click" and mouse selection
still works fine.

But here's the thing that I can't quite wrap my head around: changing it back
to "Auto detect" does *not* restore the one-mouse-event-behind issue. My mental
model of how the software works under the hood does not align with what
actually is going on. It's as if there's some kind of hysteresis. Is that even
possible in software? I also have no idea why a setting for controlling the
behavior of line mode would affect select mode, but it seems to be the case
here.

I've tried this on several of my .skp files and the mouse clicking seems to
perform properly in all of them, even after closing the application itself.
I've also changed Vblank mode back "on" in nvidia-settings and moved the
PowerMizer back to Auto and SketchUp 8 continues to select correctly.

This is scarcely believable to me, so I wouldn't blame others for thinking I
inadvertently changed some other configuration that is actually fixing the
problem, but I really did my best to be systematic and change only one thing at
a time.
