I want to test a special IC chip that uses a total of 11 I/O 
lines (8 for data I/O, 3 for address lines).  I could design 
a serial-to-parallel translator with a UART, and go through the
serial port, but for the quick and dirty test I want to do I'd rather 
use the Amiga's parallel port.

Problem: The parallel port only provides 8 parallel I/O lines.

Question: Does the Amiga provide three other output lines controllable
    by software? Perhaps some of the game or mouse port pins?
