Cool.

However, I got these warnings from the ICD2:
ICDwarn0052 "ICD2 cannot validate target device"
Ignored this error and tried to program anyway:
ICD0161 "verify failed Test address 0x800000 expected val 0x40080 val read 0x0

I get a warning when I program with the PICkit 3 - the hex file loads with no errors, but when I verify there is a mismatch at some address. I'll check when I get home.

One problem may be the connection to the MCLR pin - when connected to the ICD2, it measures about 2.86V - I don't know if this is a problem or not. 
Also, the ICD2 manual says "NO capacitor from MCLR to ground, as this will prevent fast transitions of Vpp. A simple pullup resistor is sufficient."
suggestions? Does the PICKIT3 say anything about MCLR?

2.86V on a board that uses 5V sounds like a problem - it's too close to 2.5V and not close enough to 3.3V.
I did not go through the PICkit 3 documentation. When I plugged it in, it worked, so the manual sits unread.
Here's the manual

Page 20 shows a typical connection. It looks like a 4K7 to 10K0 resistor is typical - no capacitor.
