I'm trying to revive an old airless paint sprayer (Wagner W500) and
made decent progress until I met the fitting on the paint reservoir.

Is this two page parts pdf your machine? If so pass on the part number
and page you're talking about. Would help to visualize the part...
https://airless.com.au/documents/Wagner-W500-Manual.pdf
Maybe #11 on page 2?

Perhaps the oddest thing is the rounded thread profile, almost
like a Whitworth pattern.

Wagner claims to have the reservoir in stock for $135, but I'd
like to see how the sprayer behaves using a pickup tube. The bore
of the fitting is 13 mm, so a half inch tube will fit inside, an
o-ring over the tube can form a gland seal if I convert the brass
insert into a compression nut.

There is a standard thread that looks like that listed in Machinery's
