And then I carry the machine up from the basement and plug it in in the office with the 'production' setting, the LCD, and ... well, no, it won't see the EDID and settles for 800x600 and won't shift. I've tried editing the boot line, the grub/gfxboot and the xorg.conf to include 1024, 1280 with various modelines. NADA.

What's the thing that on all those test failures remain the same? One the cable, two the card. All those failures have that hardware in common. Either your cable or your card is broken, so change at least one of them to try! Gosh!
As previously reported, Mageia, multiple Fedoras and pre-12.2 openSUSE have no such trouble. A change of one of the components you listed might have a useful impact, but I would be unsurprised if none do - except for the gfx - his gfxchip is SiS.
