the official sandbox is EXT022.  the only reason for moving ternlogi
and grevlogi to a separate opcode is because they're completely nuts
on bit-allocation, and were putting design pressure on the bitmanip space
which is pretty heavily loaded.

ternlogi has to move from EXT05 if grevlogi is to be on EXT09, they're
allocated as a pair.
