I just went back to my well lit lab with my big magnifyers and took a better look at my PicKit2 board. The REV 5 PCB directly from Microchip DOES have the mods already made. Look for the C6 designator. It has R34 which is a 2.7K resistor mounted directly on top of it. R21 has been changed to 1K. And R35 and R36 have been added directly to pins 4 and 5 of J3 ICSP connector on the bottom side of the board. I just wanted to fix my earlier mis-information before I inconvenienced anyone.
