It was Mavic (Aksium wheels, so probably a lower grade freehub than what they put on the Ksyriums), and it had over 10K miles. I'd estimate it had been exhibiting the more minor symptoms for at least 1K before it finally died. The hubs have been serviced twice in that time and the freehub at least twice - they may have skipped it this latest time though.
I never checked the wheel hub for play, but I can't imagine I wouldn't have noticed that if it were there - wouldn't it cause squirrely handling, vibration on braking, etc.? I do check the headset and BB now and then, but I've never had one come loose without being able to feel it while riding. Anyway I'll add that to my list of things to check periodically.
