Wanderer, I'm surprised you haven't been able to find a lab to carry out the required DNA test for this.  Parentage testing is now commonplace so identical twin testing should be a doddle.

If you're in the UK, I'll bet the AHT could do it - http://www.aht.org.uk/genetics_dnaparentage.html

The university teaching hospital advised me that DNA testing for parentage is quite common but not "robust" or "extensive" enough to prove identical twins.  That is what they said.  I know little about DNA testing and what can and cannot be proved.
