I took the LCD apart and recognized it as some sort of simple parallel interface.  After some futzing, here's the pinouts, working:

// LCD is a HD44780, 16, 2.
// Numbering from the LCD board itself
// PIN  | LCD FUNCTION
// 01   | GND
// 02   | VCC (5v)
// 03   | RS
// 04   | RW
// 05   | EN
// 06   | D4
// 07   | Data5 7 R
// 08   | Data6 6 B
