Pulling a few things from the dark recesses of my memory: Despite being an LF chip, maybe it needs 5V for programming? Or maybe it cannot operate at 5V and needs 3.3V? Also, is this one of those chips which had a low-voltage programming method and needed a pin (called LVP?) pulled high or low to ensure proper operation of the normal ICSP method?
