I think the idea of a 40-pin cable running to a prewired glomper clip
(or socket that sits between the processor and the board) is a wonderful
idea.  Providing a hardware MUX that allows you to select between all
those signals under software control would be expensive, but just
buffering the signals and then feeding them to a manual crosspoint switch
shouldn't cost too much.  And sticking pins into a crosspoint switch is
a LOT easier and less error-prone than moving tiny clips on an inaccessible
PC board.
The only thing is, I want more than 40 pins.
