Hmm, I looked into sectsty already, which doesn't have anything
useful, and titlesec  chokes, producing a long error with lots of
complaints about paragraphs ending "before \in@ was complete", Package
titlesec Error: Entered in horizontal mode, illegal units of measure,
etc.

Summary:

\...@extract\subparagraph

I've run across a `}' that doesn't seem to match anything.
For example, `\def\a#1{...}' and `\a}' would produce
this error. If you simply proceed now, the `\par' that
I've just inserted will cause me to report a runaway
argument that might be the root of the problem. But if
your `}' was spurious, just type `2' and it will go away.
