Headgasket was the culprit, indeed.
Luckily, it was caught early enough that nothing else was damaged.
$331 in parts, $1049 in labor at a well-known indie Saab garage.
Just for reference, the parts list included various fasteners, antifreeze, oil and filter, intake gasket, head gasket, timing chain tensioner gasket, valve cover gasket, exhaust manifold gasket, an epoxy kit, and a thermostat. Labor looks to be 9.5 hours.
