I think so too...either tie the /AVEC pin low or use a chip select to
generate the /AVEC signal internally.

As I understand it, the term autovector means that the you're not using the
data bus for the interrupt ack.  I think you've got the terminology
backwards here.

This part sounds good.

With your current config, I believe that it is.  Should be an easy fix if
you have an unused chip select generator.  Section 4.8.3 in the user's
manual is the relevant bit.
