That's a kind way of putting it. It appears the filter is much more mutated
than I thought, or originally intended. I've still got it on breadboard
(sans the Vactrols which I cobbed for the phase shifter) and, yes it's wired
as per my schematic. It works as per my samples.
I breadboarded two LPG's in series a couple of years ago, with a resonance
loop, and scribbled down a schematic (well scribbled onto a computer). Last
winter I grabbed that schematic, which was not....right....and breadboarded
straight from it - never checked back on the original Buchla. This time
around, the resonance sounded much more...aggressive. I thought, "Hmmm,
don't remember that part of it" and plodded on. Sounded unusually neato to
my ears, but the mis-wiring was not an intentional thing (I didn't sit down
and say "I'm going to create a totally different filter.")
I better change the documentation (it not being a Sallen-Key and all), but I
guess I'll leave it the way it is...I kinda grew fond of the little guy.

I'd be interested in the analysis. Whoever figures it out can name it =0).
