Yes: I ran both of these commands as root:
GRANT ALL ON wikidb.* TO wikiuser;
GRANT ALL ON mtdb.* TO mtuser;
FLUSH PRIVILEGES;

It still didn't work in either case.  However, I logged off as I had
to leave for a bit, later opened a new SSH session, and now can log in
to mysql as both users, AND Mobile Type is now working!  I have no
idea what changed.  And MediaWiki is still saying "Couldn't connect to
database".  Running "show databases;" as 'wikiuser' shows the proper
database (plus the 'test' database). I'm stuck.
