"Can anyone give an example of a problem in
which determining whether a solution exists is easy (can be done in
poly-time), but where finding the solution has been proven to require
super-polynomial time? "

May I suggest you think about what having a proof of *any* algorithm
requiring
more than polynomial time would have upon the P = NP question.......
