The similar test under Linux (Ubuntu 5.04 Hoary).

LPLAB:
http://www.landamore.com/pic.html
Command line tools to support ICD1, ICD2, Promate II and others,
under Linux and Windows

Test environment:
Ubuntu Linux 5.04, MPLAB-ICD2 connected to serial port COM1
Test hex file: wisp628.hex from Wouter for a 16F628A
(test on Windows is done for a 16F819).
1) lplab-dasm: disassembly works
2) lplab-dbg: ICD2 debugging not supported by LPLAB now
3) lplab-maintain: works, downgrade the firmware to Version 6.43 
(icd01020411.hex)
4) lplab-showid: works, reads out the configuration bits and ID codes.
5) lplab-prog: partially working, programs the chip but can not read out
-e erase: working
-v: working
-b: working
-w: working, sometimes working, sometimes not
-r: not working, program stops there for quite long time.
So it is not working since you can not read it out for verification.
A missing verify feature is the next thing to do.
6) lplab-chk: hex file checking utility, working with 16F628A
