    So I did
    "menu->tools->configuration files->etc

    This opened a file which according to "Tools ->Copy File Path" is
    ~/.config/geany/filedefs/filetypes.asciidoc

    It was just 35 lines, and no sign of a [build-menu] section

    So I pasted in the afore-mentioned
[build-menu]
FT_00_LB=Compile
FT_00_CM=asciidoctor  "%d/%f" -a icons,toc=left -o "%e.html"
FT_00_WD=
EX_00_LB=_Execute
EX_00_CM=asciidoctor  "%d/%f" -a icons,toc=left -o "%e.html"
EX_00_WD=

     I closed the file, closed geany, reopened geany,
     and now *.adoc files compile to html just like they used to

     Diagnosis
     Looks like I corrupted /lost the original copy of filetypes.asciidoc
