Point that might be missing here is I was not shooting RAW during my
internship. They wanted "JPEG High" images & I saw no reason to shoot
RAW and have to go through a conversion step, so I reset the K10D to
JPEG High for the duration. (Kept the K20D set to RAW for my own use
during that period).
Does the camera produce a separate JPEG to display on the LCD when
you're shooting with the camera's file format set to JPEG?

Not so much "tiny" (it's at full resolution, IIRC), but highly compressed.
I can't remember now if that's in the "private data" tag. But even if the
preview image *is* in the file, if it isn't in same position relative to
the actual image that could be enough to make the camera unhappy; I rather
doubt that the firmware slavishly follows image tags to get to data offsets
that are going to point to data in a "known" place.
