Just before bed time last night I tried installing iWork again, only  
this time from an external CD drive rather than my Powerbook's  
internal drive. I also temporarily turned off Spotlight wondering if  
that could have been a problem. This time it did install with no  
problems. I should know better than not to change more than one  
variable at a time, but it was getting late, and I was tired and  
impatient, so I'll never know for sure which change solved the problem.
