Resolved. This was an issue with Eclipse and how it manages Java packages.
When adding the AIDL file to Eclipse you must right-click the "src" folder and select New | Package and then add the AIDL file into that package. I ran into trouble by simply creating the folder structure manually (com\mycompany\myservice) on the file system and then importing into the AIDL via Eclipse. I simply removed that manual entry, added a new package in Eclipse and Viola! Java (and Eclipse) are not my primary development areas so this might be obvious to some people. It was not obvious to me ... I posted here in hope this will benefit others.
