know of any recent decisions concerning [doctrine of equivalents?  My most-recent recollection is that it was chopped off at the knees.

Sure. Two DoE decisions just this summer (Duramed and Retractable Technologies). Both found no infringement under DoE.

So, yeah, I'd say it's hard to win under DoE.
