Correct. Within the FPGA I can mux the IRQ/FIRQ lines in such a
way as to use the two bits to control directions the IRQ/FIRQs are
routed out to the CPU. Either from the PIA chips or from the GIME
replacement.

Right now I am try ing to get a basic compatible chip up and
functioning. Then work on alterations and improvements
