Responding to my own question - I have now fixed this. It appears that Outlook was getting itself confused. I had two pst files open, one being an Outlook2007 pst file and the other being Outlook2002. I have now migrated the earlier version to Outlook2007 and this excessive cpu activity has now gone away.
This should have been spotted during the beta testing phase for Office2007, shouldn't it? Or is my "professional" testing experience too rigid for Microsoft's amateur programmers?
