ATN out is bit 2 of the on-chip I/O port. Like the 64, it is only
available as an (inverted) output.

The nice thing about the 264 series is that because the serial bus uses
the processor I/O port, reads and writes of the port can use zero page
instructions. Hopefully this will compensate in part for the slower clock
speed.
