Newer schematics seems to use voltage divider in atmega VSS pin. You can try to unsolder resistor between VSS input and ground pin (if you have 2 resistors in VSS pin - keep this one - between mpguino VSS input pin and atmega pin).

Edit:
if your mpguino is based on this schematic, then voltage divider is made using R3 and R6 - remove R6 (then all voltage reaches to pin 23, otherwise half of voltage)

Let me know if it helps
