Oh, thanks, I've totally missed that.

The signal that controls the existing refresh counters seems to be
available in the expansion connector as RDY which would need to be
combined with P2REFGNT in the coprocessor socket. Those two combined
could control a counter for the extra bits a 44256 (or higher) needs.
