Here is my itinerary all in economy (L):
AA DFW-LHR
BA LHR-BLR
Sri Lankan Airlines BLR-CMB-SIN
CX SIN-HKG
AA HKG-DFW

The link mentioned above (from 2005) doesn't list Sri Lankan Airlines. The wiki doesn't mention Sri Lankan Airlines either. I have an option to fly on Malaysian Airlines or Qatar Air instead, but with a less optimal time/connections.

I want (and need) the miles to count towards my AA status. Will it?
