The components for the Inhibit driver arrived yesterday. I populated the module, plugged it in, connected the inhibit lines, and loaded the arduino with a checkerboard memory test I wrote a couple of weeks ago.
And....it works!
No memory errors after 100,000+ iterations, each iteration consisting of writing a pattern byte (0x55 or 0xaa) to all memory locations, then reading all memory locations, checking the data read against the pattern.
This project is now complete, and I can move on with the rest of the ED-64 build. Yay!

0x55 and 0xAA are nice but only 1/128 of the coding space.
Now, use a 32-bits LFSR ;-)
Are you sure? yes | no
Those values do test the most extreme condition though; a full state change for each bit with an alternating bit pattern (10101010 -> 01010101).
Are you sure? yes | no
well, it depends...
