Okay, I gotta be missing something..can't get particles to emit from a linked object, but it works fine from a single prim. Thanks for any suggestions!

There is nothing particularily special about getting particles to emit from a linked object, or any individual prim within a linked-set.
Assuming the size of your test object and the actual prim within the linked-set are the same, then if it emits from one then it should emit from the other.
If they are different sizes, then check that the particle parameters have enough 'momentum' (speed, age, acceleration, radius) to actually leave the prim.
Otherwise check your technique by ensuring that the particle script is in the 'Contents' of the linked-prim
