Well, having gotten some replies to the panicked post I made on the Drupal.org forums last night, it now seems that it's no big deal - lots of people actually remove the login block entirely for sites that don't allow public login. The thing I didn't realize is that to get to the login page you have to go to yourdomain.com/user rather than yourdomain.com/admin. Once I did that, all was good.
